((Okay sorry I feel like you're not understanding the basic premise, and me giving slight corrections isn't fixing this. I'll just try to explain the concept of the whole to see if this helps))

((You control The Great Sentasaurus. For example, if you wanted to say this, you can say "I go to a relatively unknown local cafe". This is an action you take, and only describes what you are doing. However, naming the cafe, or describing it's current state would not count as a valid action, as these are things I control. Does this clear it up a bit?))
((hes not wearing the sentsaurus costume at the moment if you confused about that otherwise I will improvise))

7:22 PM
I guess ill thank him.
7:29 PM
"@Sam11944913 so I will be blunt and honest with you, im not at right to answer the questions. I got a phone call that warned about not doing this now, idk. but rules are rules.
However, I would still like to thank you for responding to me! How did you even get this twitter? I'm barely recognized. I also would like to thank you for addressing this concern about my lack of memorabilia. It could eventually change where I want to go with this ridiculous costume. And I would also like to thank you for actually going with what I wanted, even though you won't get any answers thanks to the limitations. I guess you could call this a Shaggy 'saurus Story? Preview
Anyways, I've sent you an online coupon for you to use at a nearby general store to get Oreos at 50% off. Just print it out and its free to use! If theres any issues pertaining to that, please DM me again.
Thank you,

Belto Shelk Memorial Highschool is a highschool in Avengard. It is named after a Belto Shelk, but finding which one is weirdly needlessly complicated for some reason. The school is designed for richer kids, and considered fairly elitist.
"So basically, this afternoon I had a session that I thought was tomorrow but was instead today. I was not prepared. I basically had to prank this family into thinking I was their child. But I was alone, and I had a panic attack and probably ruined the entire video. I got scared and thought I might have ruined my entire career. I came alone walking home crying and that's basically it. I had a plan to turn this entire spiel into it being intentionally bad, but I ended up embarrassing myself today and probably pissing off who I work with so thats out of the window. Please give this note to sam after you read it".(edited)
6:54 PM
I pass the paper to the kid, and stared at jackson.
6:54 PM
"I will do that. Thank you. This day has been tiring enough for me already".
6:55 PM
i need to find a way to bypass jackson without him berating me. tommorrow probably.
"Okay, now let's make some informed discussions here." Jackson walked towards the money. "This? Pain in the ass to get. That's my own money, you fucking asshole. Do you know the shit I go through for you? Do you?" He aimed the gun at Bob.
Ehn/PC
"Okay, now let's make some informed discussions here." Jackson walked towards the money. "This? Pain in the ass to get. That's my own money, you fucking asshole. Do you know the shit I go through for you? Do you?" He aimed the gun at Bob.
"Okay, now let's make some informed discussions here." Jackson walked towards the money. "This? Pain in the ass to get. That's my own money, you fucking asshole. Do you know the shit I go through for you? Do you?" He aimed the gun at Bob.
"Your parents aren't real you fucking moron! That's another one I'm not allowed to say, but look at us now! I'm already in deep enough shit as it is, what's another car crash on my road to success." Jackson is hyperventilating.
"See, I don't want to kill you Bob... But I'm in way too high over my fucking head to start hesitating now. You get me? You understand proper English for once? If you move from that spot I will kill you. Kill. As in shoot your fucking brains out. That clear!?" He's sweating heavily.
"You trying to message someone? Right now? Are you even paying attention to the words I'm saying?" Sophie trembled at Jackson's words. "You know, this was all because of you. Everything would be normal if you just kept your fucking nose out of this. Why don't I just simplify the matter here, then?" Jackson held the gun right up to the teenage girl's head. "Come on. Tell me. Why should I do not shoot you right this second?"
Sophie started crying, and hyperventilating as well. "Sam, please. Sam, please. Sam, please. Sam, please. Sam, please. Sam, please. Sam, please." She muttered this over and over again.
7:51 PM
"What was that? Louder!?" Jackson yelled.
"I said please don't kill me! Please don't kill me!" Sophie.
"I'm so sorry I acted like you were dishonest and horrible. All I ever did do you horribly tarnish your reputation and waste time. My self-serving tendencies failed to see the ulterior motives you had for me at hand. But now that I realize how right you are and how horribly wrong I was. P-please mister day. Please tell me how to atone"!
2:41 PM
I try to grab her arm closer to be to get a better look at what shes holding.
"I'll smash whatever she has in her hands to pieces! Please! Tell me how I can make up for this! I don't deserve to have any worth for the mistakes I've done".
"I'll use that phone..... I'll smash it into pieces! PLease Jackson! Do whatever you tell me. And after its all over.... you can erase my memories... and I can start anew"!!!!
"A phone? I knew it, you little bitch!" Jackson. "I'm in enough trouble without you butting in!"
"Please! There's no phone, he's lying!" Sophie tried to pull her hand away from Bob.
"That's phone. I recognize the brand. Jackson, tell me what to do. I'll.... I'll even kill! I won't remember a thing after you wipe my memories"!
2:48 PM
I trust jackson to do the right thing.
2:51 PM
I trust jackson to do the right thing.
2:52 PM
"I tried to save you jackson!!!! I only hurt you even more! I hurt you so much you threatened to murder! I'll save you again! I'll save you again and make it right this time"!
"Stop talking!" Jackson moved the gun towards Bob. "I don’t understand what you’re talking about. If you say another word and alert your neighbours, I really will shoot you right now."
2:55 PM
"Now! Show me the phone, or I shoot. Try to do anything else, I’ll shoot."
"Is that it jackson...... Am I truly useless to you........... Was I ever a friend to you................"
2:56 PM
"You can't even trust me to kill"...............
2:57 PM
"Shoot me".
2:58 PM
"You said I had no parents. That everything was a lie. I'm disposable to you. So shoot me".

3:05 PM
I trust jackson to do the right thing.
3:06 PM
No.....this isn't right
3:06 PM
I trust Jackson to do the right thing.
3:06 PM
He has a gun..... he's threatening to kill a child. I THREATENED to kill a child! Something is wrong here.
Something is very wrong here. I don't know what.I trust Jackson to do the right thing.Why do I have this incoherent ideology, that makes me do weird things? Trust? No one puts trust on this great of a level?!I trust Jackson to do the right thing.I've said "trust" so much I've failed to make it even remotely a cohesive word.I trust Jackson to do the right thing.
3:12 PM
I vomit. I didn't eat anything but it still comes out
3:14 PM
Jackson said that my life was an entire lie. A set up by Day himself.
3:15 PM
Could all of this, be part of faulty programming? or intentionally sloppy programming to make me do incohesive things? I could be a robot. It's not all implausible.
3:16 PM
An object used to do a task and when that's done, do another...... it sounds like what jackson has been doing these past few days.
3:18 PM
I dont know whats going on anymore with the two. I dont understand it anymore. Everything that I see is blurry. I was shot in the leg! It must be shock.
3:19 PM
I trust Jackson to do the right thing.
3:19 PM
No. NO! Shut up. SHUT UP!(edited)
3:25 PM
If the robot theory is correct, it could explain why my speech felt a lot more....broken the day I went to the cafe. Maybe that's why Wilford, the bartender, didn't know what I was talking about.
3:25 PM
What is Danganronpa V3, anyways?
3:27 PM
But I can't say for sure If im a robot. I'm dictating the pace of a story that the author themself can't keep up with!(edited)
@Schilalyi is awakened by the sound of a gunshot. He is currently lying in a pool of his own blood. Sam Kidink is attempting to attack Jackson. Sophie is here, still terrified.
Bob Smith woke up wearing the Sentasaurus costume, feeling in even more pain than before. There is a white cat in the suit as well, blocking his vision.
Sam sighs before starting an explanation. "Hello, Mr. Kerloe. Right after I exited your store, someone threatened me, requiring me to take action for reasons I don't know. Then, afterwards, I ran back here with Sophie - the person who texted me - because I couldn't think of any safer places nearby. I have no idea what anything else going on here is about."
"...What's with the other guy? Do you know who he is? And did you just crash through the window? I'd prefer if all of this would just go back to normal, though it's better to sort out the situation first than not."
"I didn't crash through a window, what are you talking about? Look, the window is fine. Are you sure you aren't seeing things? And, no, I don't know who the 'other guy' is." Unfamiliar person.(edited)
"...I don't know. I think this other guy may have been at the house I was just forced to go to, and I recall him saying something absurd about himself like being a robot or whatever, but it's not impossible that this is all a false illusion. Let's test that." Sam Kidink.
11:55 AM
"Well, did you see that? Do you want to try as well? It appears the window really is broken. If it's not me seeing things, it could be you, though ideally neither of us are." Sam.
12:00 PM
"See what?" Unknown person.
12:00 PM
"The window. I just put my hand out of it, which means that at least to me, it's broken." Sam.
"Well, what about you, Mr. Kerloe? Even though the window was broken for me, it's not impossible for the window to be intact from your perspective, so I think it could be a good idea if you stuck your hand out the window as well to see what happens. Understanding this detail should help things return to normal, in my opinion." Sam.
hi. I'm bob smith. Youtube channel of both Sentasaurus rex, and the official Team Nine youtube channel.
1:08 PM
having favorites is a bit of a, contrarian thing to say the least. so I'll list my least favorite things. Our newest president, Tuna sandwiches, and the nearby Fitness Planet.
1:08 PM
Sounds good, right? I couldn't imagine someone not understanding such concrete and understandable flaws that wreck people's everyday life.
1:15 PM
I have... seem to have gotten myself in a pickle. To say the least. My chest hurts! My leg hurts! Blood is... everywhere! I've seen to have gotten stuck in this sweaty old costume. The ventilation works.... not at all. And there's weird.... cat inside. We should take care of that first.
I must be hallucinating. There's no way cats can really talk in real life! That's preposterous! It's like saying someone is in fact an android in disguise. It's almost improbable.
1:19 PM
So you are going to forget what you did, huh?(edited)
1:19 PM
Are you going to continue submitting to these delusions of yours?(edited)
1:20 PM
Delusions?.... These voices inside my head..... what are these?.......
1:21 PM
You embarrassed yourself in front of your local cafe. You exposed and tarnished your identity as the elusive sentasaurus. You lost the only chains you had with your friend.
1:22 PM
He was pushed to GUNPOINT! You threatened to kill somebody! Do you even remember the "trust"? and how far you took these words to make them meaningless?(edited)
1:22 PM
no...... i dont remember.... what are you talking about?
1:24 PM
Did you really think you were a robot? You had to ask a child what the hell was going on with your body. Despite the fact that YOU knew better.
1:24 PM
Who.... is this?
1:24 PM
No...... this isn't me. I refuse to acknowledge that this isn't me. No.......
1:25 PM
This simply did not happen. If I had flaws, they wouldn't be this egregious. I'm not selfish or unaware to pull... these kinds of bullcrap.
1:25 PM
Well, you did them bob, and your pathetic for trying to get away from them.(edited)
1:25 PM
no....
1:26 PM
no....NO!!!! I REFUSE WHATEVER YOU ARE SAYING.... sh... sh....
"I’m no member of team nine. I am the man Jackson Day feared. For our purposes, you may simply refer to me by my title, Grandmaster. Does that suit you?"
"Please. Don’t concern yourself with that for now. We’ll be reclaiming you shortly. This hospital would be far too messy, but if you have any friends you’d like to say goodbye to… Well, you don’t have much time for that! So enjoy your day." He put the scalpel back down.
"Right, about that. It looks like your face and the rest of your body have somehow grown at a different rate. It’s nothing serious, just slight cosmetic effects."
"Every information I get and believe. It always contradicts itself".
5:40 PM
"I lie to myself to justify that there's an actual answer between the midst of whatever incoherent nonsense I'm doing".

6:00 PM
"Keeping a cool backbone like when you stood up to Mr. Kerloe... it was pretty admirable despite the awkwardness of the situation".(edited)
6:01 PM

"but what"?
6:03 PM

I'm Bob Smith. Im not sure about who or what my past or present was, and it seems that I have gotten myself........in quite a pickle. All I truly know, is that I hate Belto Shelk, Tuna Sandwiches, and Fitness planet. A cat stands before me that talks, no less. Have I met them before? It seems unlikely.
12:33 PM
I have to make a good first impression. I will assess the situation with the precision needed.
12:34 PM
"Well, it seems that I woke up pretty bad, whoever that FB guy was, he really did mess up with my head, physically, at least".
12:34 PM
My head hurts for some reason. Could that have been caused by.......me..............?
12:34 PM
No..................
12:35 PM
NO.......................
12:35 PM
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO- that's preposterous.
12:36 PM
If this cat mentioned a hypothetical declining mental health, Im sure this would be a plausible theory, though it seems like they didn't.(edited)
12:37 PM
"Enough with me.......how about you"?
12:38 PM
"Its quite strange that a cat would well, talk to me".
12:38 PM
"Or maybe i really am just insane".
12:42 PM
"It seems that judging by, well, unusual circumstances. I would say that you are very much behind all of this. So let me ask you: are you really behind all of this"?(edited)
"If you are doing this out of the goodness of your heart, i dont think selfish decisions such as drawing out this "sorry" to validate yourself isn't all that good".(edited)
2:02 PM
"But im sorry for yelling at you, seeing how you are continuing to waste my time like this".(edited)
I retrace my steps back and return to where I came from.
12:54 PM
I'll have to wait for a call from hav.......
12:56 PM
what do I need to do to be accepted? to be loved?
12:58 PM
why does no one understand the pain I feel? Why does no one simply decide that when I change, it's for the better? it doesn't make sense.
1:00 PM
do people really want the old me? the old person who speaks in completely broken sentences? the person that can't even do one simple job correctly without breaking down?
1:01 PM
but I guess i will never find an answer, because its not like no one cares to acknowledge me.(edited)
1:04 PM
how did this all happen... why did it have to happen to me?! why must everything go against everything I desire to do? This is a sick twisted game of fate! I don't deserve this! I don't deserve this at all!
1:06 PM
From this point forward, it's almost like I have been living under a massive panic attack.
1:06 PM
panic.....attack......
1:06 PM
i.......had.......those......
1:08 PM
NO! NO! I REFUSE TO BELIEVE IT I DONT WANT TO BELIEVE IT! I'M NOT THE REASON I FAIL! ITS EVERYTHING ELSE! IM ALWAYS THE VICTIM AND IT WILL FOREVER BE THAT WAY!
1:10 PM
ITS THEIR FAULT! YES....IT'S THEIRS! IM LIKE THIS BECAUSE OF THEM!(edited)
1:11 PM
Wilford.... Team Nine.... Sam...... if I remove them all, maybe there's a chance I can finally accomplish my goals!
1:12 PM
Revenge...yes......it's perfect!
1:12 PM
Jackson said I was living a lie! I had no parents! Whos to say that everyone else is in on the joke to manipulate me to my own ends!
I take everything and wear my dinosaur suit, and fly out of the hospital.
2:09 PM
I use the receipt I got from Hav's fish basket and write a letter to him.
2:09 PM
But first I throw out the fish, and hide it, so hav, for sure doesn't notice.
2:10 PM
I write this to him:
2:15 PM
Dear Mr. Kerloe,
On my way to the hospital, I accidentally dropped the fish while flying and failed to catch it in time, so I'm not convinced that fish is well, really better than garbage. Could you please call me once you've made the recipe again so I can pick it up and actually try it? I'll give money even if i don't like it.
Heres my phone number: [REDACTED]
Signed,
Bob Smith
2:16 PM
I fly to the fish store, put the receipt in the basket and plan to place it near his doorstep.(edited)
They sell guns at the price where those would be sold at in the state of New York. I am not looking up the price of guns because I am not American and that will put me on a watchlist.
"I wanted to live a happy and peaceful life as myself, but things started to change...someone pulled a gun on me, and now my entire life may be in jeopardy".(edited)
2:46 PM
"Its a shame that it had to come down to this, it's a terrible shame".
2:48 PM
"maybe this was too much for you, to talk about something that could be far across from what you yourself know about. I'm sorry. I'll see myself out".
2:48 PM
Its only something I know.
2:49 PM
it's only something I know because the odds rigged my life against my own will.
2:49 PM
No one will ever know. Which is why I will make it be known.
2:49 PM
I walk out of the gunstore and decide to close a few loose ends by going on my phone.
"That miserable Mr Kerloe. Refusing to acknowledge me as anything but a joke. I bet he's in cahoots with Kidink, who is also in cahoots with team nine".
8:14 PM
"If I get him first, I'll be able to scare everyone and end up getting them all back".
8:15 PM
"His ideology.... he's so foolish! His ideology will torment and kill him inside, just like my ideology of trust... j will simply speed up this process".
8:16 PM
But before I do any of that... I check my phone
8:16 PM
That video... I forgot that video.(edited)
8:17 PM
I have to look at that YouTube video where I embarrassed myself! Prehaps this could be useful for something.
it's their fault they didn't check me! It's their fault that everything happened! My plan couldn't come to fruition......but I may have a chance later on.(edited)
This is why they locked me in? They didn't want people to know the truth? Because I would have accidentally told them?
8:24 PM
No..... NO!
8:27 PM
No..... nothing cant be my fault anymore. Coming back and atoning..... that would just make everything worse!
8:28 PM
I have to make a new identity. I desperately need to. I dont care if they all die. They're wealthy. Who am I? A loser who mooched money off of Jackson Day? A guy who had to be edited out because he was so pathetic to pull of a simple prank? Its better off to die successful than to live poor.
8:28 PM
oh yes.
8:28 PM
the tweets.
8:28 PM
I forgot about them!
8:28 PM
i have two more tweets! how could i forget.(edited)
The Elusive Sentasaurus at the drug store, what will he do
Schilalyi
I have to make a new identity. I desperately need to. I dont care if they all die. They're wealthy. Who am I? A loser who mooched money off of Jackson Day? A guy who had to be edited out because he was so pathetic to pull of a simple prank? Its better off to die successful than to live poor.
i need to stop dawning on their morality. Every time, I switch a side. Every time I use a theory to explain who I am. And it never works. It contradicts itself. The Grandmaster told me im not real. But the hospital said I did.....! A coin only has two "main" faces. Heads or tails. Like good or evil. But on the rare occasion, one can land on the part of the coin on the side..... I simply must be that side myself.(edited)
"I can fly, you know. all of your aren't hallucinating".
9:01 PM
"and all of you still won't communitcate with me".
9:01 PM
I show the bottle of soporifics I have with me(edited)
9:02 PM
"This is a highly flammable substance I have with me"
9:03 PM
"pops smuggled it with some medicine container while we met at the hospital".(edited)
9:04 PM
"With enough force, it will be able to kill all of us. A lose lose situation. I die, and jackson is in doom, and you die before you get to comply with jacksons orders".
9:04 PM
"And it just so happens that I have a gun! This substance, with enough force, can explode".
"Okay, just stop with the... Whatever this is. We're going to have a normal conversation, and you're going to tell me what I want to know. In exchange, I'll show you a good safehouse."
"I am desperate in need of a new identity. I pushed people into trying to kill me, like you've seen over there. I just wanted to be successful. I wanted people to love me. Have you heard what your son feels about me? When I called for his help, he left me out to rot! This is because of who i am. This is because of my past. I need to let it all go".
9:25 PM
"I want to sever the connections between the horrible people refusing to forgive me, to the point of murder! Team Nine, and Hav Kerloe".
"The leader, jackson day. He shot me. He attempted to kill Sam's friend. I got shot in the process. I sold out secrets about them, because I was asked to".
9:32 PM
"I gave your son information, along with his friend".(edited)
9:34 PM
"Those guys at team nine. They were at Hav's fish store. hav didnt seem very happy about me, wasn't very nice. But I didnt know he was going to kill me! Actual gunmen came to kill me at the store"!
"Finally... Finally, you're here. Don't you understand how much I've had to suffer, waiting here not knowing if you'd somehow ruin everything and break free once again." Jackson Day entered the apartment.
Okay the stun gun knocks Bob out. ((I was gonna let you say words as you lost consciousness but I unfortunately forgot you type way faster than I can pay attention to while checking other channels))
When Sentasaurus awoke, he was still wearing the dinosaur costume. His hands are tied behind his back, and he is seated in a vehicle with Jackson Day and Naomi Kidink in the passenger seat. He cannot control his body.
Alright. Game plan. I go up front to the drivers seat and block the drivers vision. The car will crash, and it will either kill or have both of them arrested.
2:14 PM
On second thought, let me listen to jackson.
2:15 PM
On second thought, this guy is an idiot. fuck him, im going up front.
2:16 PM
"YOU CAN'T BEAT ME JACKSON! WATCH ME MOVE"!
2:17 PM
I go up to the drivers seat and intentionally limit the drivers vision.
2:17 PM
"DON'T TALK TO ME LIKE THAT! I'M THE GRANDMASTERS SON"!
"Your panic attacks....if you don't acknowledge them, you will continue to involve yourself in your delusions, and follow one complete, elaborate, lie".(edited)
I envision myself in 100 mirrors. They all have my image on them. They all laugh. They all laugh. THey allll laugh. HAHa h AHaha ha AH Ha hA AH AH ah AH AHA HA AhA hAH ah HA hA ha ah AH AHA AH AHA HA HA AHA HAhaa hah HA QHAH HA Aha
As the minutes pass by, I imagine lots of things. Me shooting jackson day. Me getting an opportunity to arrest Naomi. The poisoning of Hav Kerloe. Me befriending Sam Kidink after all of this is over. Or maybe there's a chance now that Jackson will forgive me, and prehaps my life will return to normal.(edited)
I don't go by the sentasaurus anymore. I don't go by bob smith. I'm just me. I get to live an everyday life, without the embarrassing parts. Everyone loves me, I'm successful.
2:56 PM
The delusions keep passing by. I want to cry. But im not in control.
2:57 PM
Why.... why is it my fault that these things happen to me? I'm blameless. BLAMELESS!
2:57 PM
WHERES MY HAPPY ENDING?!!! WHERES MY HAPPY ENDING?!
A new guy came in from another door. "Oh, they're here."
"Indeed they are, Gordon. You can let the Kidink kid go, and put old Extinctasaurus here in his place." Smoking guy.(edited)
Gordon dragged Bob through the door he'd come in from, and into a room with 2 prison-like cells. Sam Kidink and Sophie Wight are both trapped in the cells. ((Okay here's how it's going to work. You post your actual inner monologue and Bob Smith actions in here, and I will tell you what Bob Smith externally does. You post these actions in the Bob and Sam channel and y' doesn't get to know the funny trick))
Ehn/PC
Gordon dragged Bob through the door he'd come in from, and into a room with 2 prison-like cells. Sam Kidink and Sophie Wight are both trapped in the cells. ((Okay here's how it's going to work. You post your actual inner monologue and Bob Smith actions in here, and I will tell you what Bob Smith externally does. You post these actions in the Bob and Sam channel and y' doesn't get to know the funny trick))
Sam turns to the Sentasaurus. “Hey, it’s you. Are you working for these people? Or did you come to bring some oreos too? Not my usual breakfast choice, but if you’re going to be the third uninteresting person to enter the room today, you should at least do something useful.”
Then he turns to Sophie. “Did you suspect this might happen?”
"Sorry, but the only person here I know is me." Bob laughs. "I mean, probably. I'm the Elusive Sentasaurus. Real name who cares. This man is named Gordon. One of you two is probably named Kidink, too, though I have no idea which because that doesn't even sound like a real name."
3:45 PM
"Of course, maybe I'm not him. I mean, people are their memories, aren't they? If someone can't recall or found their personality on the sum of their past experience, that person might as well have died."
3:48 PM
"Kidink's supposed to be let go, right? That's the arrangement. See, I'm getting it."
"I probably do look pretty crazy right now, haha. Sorry. Honestly, I've been having a pretty lousy day. Though I have probably been having a worse day." Bob looks up.
Bob chuckles again. "Yeah, the Sentasaurus is in like, two different layers of imprisonment right now. Three if you count the suit. Are you implying Bob Smith is responsible for your captivity? That would be inexplicable, given he, by which I mean me, has been restrained and put in a cell. Also, leaving a place obviously doesn't make you a different person. That's dumb."
"True, I'll also be looking for the Elusive Sentasaurus. I guess the joke of the name is the difficulty of that, huh?"
4:25 PM
"Do you truly think you're representing the interests of your child?" Bob directs this at Naomi.
4:29 PM
"My understanding is that the Elusive Sentasaurus just kind of says shit. I'm probably doing good enough for a lost soul."
4:32 PM
"Alright, jeez. Are you gonna kill me now, or something?"
4:32 PM
"Ow. What?"
4:34 PM
“Probably not. If you stay there, you’ll probably just be stuck for a while, being unable to make any new useful memories, so you’ll be stuck as ‘Nathan’, probably. Have fun with that.” Sam.
4:35 PM
"Why the hell does a mall have jail cells, anyway?"
4:36 PM
"I'm going to make everyone's life miserable if I don't get to go to the bathroom. It's going to smell awful in here and everyone will be culpable."
4:38 PM
"Oh thank God." Bob takes off the suit.(edited)
Ehn/PC
“Probably not. If you stay there, you’ll probably just be stuck for a while, being unable to make any new useful memories, so you’ll be stuck as ‘Nathan’, probably. Have fun with that.” Sam.
"My ticket out of here is a little different. I don't know what you're talking about, how the hell could this suit do anything?"
4:43 PM
"I-- well, I guess it's too late to take that back, at any rate."
4:48 PM
“I’m going to ascend back to the plane I came from, through the use of a gateway.” Bob explains this obvious fact.
4:55 PM
"I can't do it now. These things aren't just anywhere. I can't create a gateway."
5:01 PM
"I don't think I can fly. It's a lot less out there of a possibility to just try to use the bathroom and go from there. What, do I have a clothes-dependent superpower? Is that the idea?"
5:02 PM
"Before you question my priorities, note that you just ate raw fish."
5:04 PM
Bob laughs. "Well, alright. By any chance, have you heard the name Ehn before?"(edited)
"I'm beginning to think I'm the only sane entity in this world."
5:29 PM
"Good luck with whatever yo--ah! Jesus. What the hell is she even here for? I know I pissed some people off but what about her?"
5:33 PM
"I'm not one for escapism. This is just a game. I can't speak for the character I'm playing, but I don't want to just hide behind a costume. I've no reason to linger any longer than necessary."
"If I'm correct, it should be unchained to a specific person. Sorry for losing it, then. Are you sure it's a good idea to be so flippant? You guys are still being held at gunpoint, you know."
5:37 PM
"Jesus! Shoot me, if anyone!"
5:44 PM
"They seem to have altered the deal. Hey, where did Johns go? I know now that you wanted to get your son, but what was his role? Was he paid to kidnap me?"
5:48 PM
Naomi and Sophie both run out of the room too, emptying all relevant NPCs,
5:51 PM
"Are you guys gonna chase after them?" Bob says this.
5:51 PM
They just kind of awkwardly nod and leave.
5:55 PM
"Just you and me, Smith. I don't get the whole first name thing. Sorry if I outed you somehow? Anyway, this is annoying." Bob looks around the cell CLOSELY.
5:59 PM
Bob is currently in what appears to be a tiny prison cell. There are metal bars on each side, and an uncomfortable looking mattress. There is a small slot that seems to be used for delivering food. The room outside the cell has room for more stuff, and seems like some kind of storage room. There is also another cage the same supplies but with no one inside.
6:01 PM
"Shit. I'd ask for help, but I think any possible communication goes only one way. What to do..." Bob checks under the mattress. Nothing.
6:03 PM
Bob inspects the small slot.
6:05 PM
"Okay. What if. It just opens." Bob attempts to just open the door to the cell. This fails.
6:05 PM
"Having trouble there?" The smoking man entered the room.
6:08 PM
"It seems like they accidentally locked me in, yeah." Bob pretends to smile all nice.
"Funny." The smoking man smirked.
6:14 PM
"Look man, I don't care what this is all about, everyone has already fucked off, can I leave? Failing that, can I take a piss? If someone needs to handcuff me again for the second thing I'll suck it up." Bob Smith says this.
"Funny enough, I don't much enjoy watching grown men piss themselves. Fine." Smoking man unlocked the cell. "Don't get cocky."
6:16 PM
"Thank you." You say this.
The guy brings you to the bathroom.
6:19 PM
"Alright, then. If you want to get out from here, it's up to you. Good luck, Senta--Sentasaurus. That's a bit of a mouthful. Maybe just go by Sent? I guess it depends on how attached to the dinosaur gimmick you are. Maybe you'll hear from this lost soul again." Bob looks at the mirror. He can now control his body again. ((End session though))
i need to stop dawning on their morality. Every time, I switch a side. Every time I use a theory to explain who I am. And it never works. It contradicts itself. The Grandmaster told me im not real. But the hospital said I did.....! A coin only has two "main" faces. Heads or tails. Like good or evil. But on the rare occasion, one can land on the part of the coin on the side..... I simply must be that side myself. (edited)
"What's your name by the way? Of course you don't need to say anything if its confidential. I just want to know the people considering the fact that this could be in fact, the rest of my life".
"You know what youtube stars are like.... they look like friendly people on the outside, but there's always these massive underground dramas that happen".
3:07 PM
"I can't expect the people at team nine to be 100% genuine people. That's not how success rolls in".
"Anyways, back me out if Jackson thinks I'm Bob. I bet he's going to act react negatively to my presence. It may not be any words, probably just a sneer".
"Do you know if Jackson and Bob had any bad blood against each other? I guess it would connect to the fact that Jackson was willing to sell him off to a cell".
But wait. If I am supposed to be striving to be the perfect person....why DO I like living in a cramped room? And why did I like the fact that I was in that dilapidated apartment?
2:09 PM
Why can't I force myself to hate this place? I'm supposed to be out there being productive. That's what a perfect person is.(edited)
2:11 PM
Maybe it's a Bob thing? Maybe he loved homes. Probably some weird obsession that I will forget in future times.
2:12 PM
But.... this.... isn't....bad. Nathan lies down on the bed.
Y'know.. I could understand why Bob could even LIKE homes in the first place. Thinking about it, this whole youtube career has to have you work hard 24/7. Not to mention the questionable workforce. That's where he got the gunshot wounds, isn't it? I almost feel bad for the guy.(edited)
"Anyways I should introduce myself. I am Nathan Smith. My father has talked about Team Nine before. He's been especially talking about this Jackson guy and how he fears my dad? He goes by the alias Grandmaster for clarification."(edited)
"Yeah. He talked to me about it. He says it almost comical how scared you are of him. My dad is a pretty chill guy. A bit eccentric, sure. But the fact that you are terrified of him of all people is unbelivable. Must have been a bad road you took to get to that point."(edited)
"Yeah. Judging by that breathing of yours, you 100% know that what I'm saying makes sense."
2:55 PM
"Alright, I already know it's you, Jackson. I'm a person who strives for perfection. But I also want other people to strive for perfection too. So can we just talk this out together and maybe I will tell my dad to stop harassing you or something."
2:56 PM
"Honestly, its on the house. You sound like a shitty person, but I think there is somewhat of a chance we can sort something out."(edited)
The door unlocked with a click and Jackson opened the door. On the other side was the headquarters of Team Nine, a mansion Bob had been to once or twice.
"Anyways, something weird happened to my original body, and I'm in his body? It's strange. If Bob really makes you that uncomfortable, I can just wear a mask."
"Well, if you're not inclined to believe me, you are not inclined to believe. I guess spend the rest of your days being chased around, cat and mouse style." I walk back to the cell. "Maybe I'll rot in this prison, and die or something. I'm scared of death, but if I have to, I have to. It sucks that I would be left with a grieving father, though."
"Mafia disgust me. Mafia with families disgust me even more. How do you lie awake every day knowing that you are lying to your child every day of your life?"
"Don't think you can just get away with your bailing your kid out as good parent points. You obviously treat your son like dirt. And the fact that you got him captured in the first place says miles about you too."
3:52 PM
"Why do people have to choose fame and fortune over the course of family and love? It makes no sense. Do you want your kid to be alone? Do you want to end up shot in the stomach like the body I'm in?"
Do I want fame and fortune? Or family? What was everything I've done up to this point for? Did I really want to be a star, or did I really just need love? A home?
3:58 PM
Did I make up the Grandmaster as my father in order to feel like I was powerful? Or was it because it was a way to feel good about having a father figure in my life?
4:00 PM
Why do I keep wanting to be someone better? Was it because I want to be successful? Or because it replaces the family that I never had in my life?(edited)
"But I saw him recently. What did he get arrested for"?
4:06 PM
"Why do I trust you to know who is my father and what isn't? Everyone treats everyone like shit!" I turn to Naomi. "You treat your kid like shit"!(edited)
4:07 PM
"You treat everyone like shit! You have no love in your life, Naomi."
4:11 PM
"And judging how you react nonchalantly despite everything I say about your personal life to cut into you, this supports my hypothesis."
4:12 PM
"I butt into everyone's private life, because that's what a family is about. I hurt their souls because I care about everyone."
"If someone was having a hard time, and having trouble doing your best, would you stop and help them and make sure their doing fine, or let them screw up and edit it later"?
5:01 PM
"You say you have team nine, but yet when you greeted what was the illusion of Bob Smith, you reacted in utter disgust."
"I care about him- You! I care about you, but you’re just insufferable! Do you think I choose to lock you in here like this!? I never wanted any of this!"
"Bob cared about you". Nathan Smith is gone. "I cared about you."
5:41 PM
"I was grown up in a place full of lies! People do whatever they want to do for the sake of comedy. You felt horrible. You were scared, I had to save you!"
5:42 PM
"The only role model I ever had in my life was a douchebag who punched a person and threw him out"!
5:42 PM
"There was no call for rationality. But it was the only sign of alien respect that caused me to go through what. This ideology of trust? And then when that failed, the idea that all trust in this world is bad"?(edited)
5:44 PM
"This place is run through fear! I did all of this because I was scared! You did this because you were scared"!
5:45 PM
"We're trapped in a system that alienates the concept of simple relationships! We lost ourselves in our own fantasies"!
5:47 PM
"Jackson. We are not bad people by chance. None of what we did was our fault"!
5:48 PM
"We have to get rid of the system. We have to live in a world of peace! Not war!"
5:48 PM
"This time. I will save you for real. This time we will save everybody! We must start a rebellion against the world that oppresses our humanity."
"I can’t understand a word you’re saying! It’s- It’s all gibberish! Are you trying to mock me? Is this all a big prank to you, and I’m the victim? World that opp- What the hell does that even mean? How could our humanity even be oppressed! What does that even mean!" He stepped away. "Just… You know the rules of this place. Don’t do anything stupid. Don’t try to leave. J-Just leave me alone for now."
"What is so complex about knowing that you did everything to me not out of love, but fear"?(edited)
5:58 PM
"I've been hearing this complaint from you a lot. That I "can't be understood". That I "make no sense."
5:59 PM
"I lied to you about my connections to the grandmaster, yet to let me out of my cell to wander around."
6:00 PM
"Is that not an example of what I have been saying, that simple lies causes you to do crazy things"?
Ehn/PC
"I can’t understand a word you’re saying! It’s- It’s all gibberish! Are you trying to mock me? Is this all a big prank to you, and I’m the victim? World that opp- What the hell does that even mean? How could our humanity even be oppressed! What does that even mean!" He stepped away. "Just… You know the rules of this place. Don’t do anything stupid. Don’t try to leave. J-Just leave me alone for now."
((It is absurd but it wouldn’t be Bob Smith if it wasn’t absurd. I can vaguely follow))
6:05 PM
"Just shut up! Shut up!" Jackson moved away from him. "I don’t want to have to deal with your headache-inducing speeches. I should be living rich and famous, but I have to babysit a lunatic instead!"
"What’s the point! Am I supposed to feel bad for you!? What does that get me! Either way, you’re either stuck here in this prison or we’re both dead!? Should I feel miserable that your life is like this as I can do nothing to fix it? Is that supposed to be better?"
"I don’t want to die! I want to live! I want to live at the top of the world! I want to be rich and successful! I can’t die just to be free! Freedom is meaningless. I don’t get anything from it. Riches, fame, they’ve got nothing to do with freedom or happiness. They’re the reward at the end of this long and painful tunnel. And I’m gonna make it to the end of that tunnel, because it’s the only thing I can do! So don’t go telling me to kill myself because you feel bad no one loves you." He took a deep breath.
"I will do that later. But I ungagged you because I want you to know that your son is unhealthy."
6:47 PM
"Sam views the world as nothing but a mystery. He has no apathy for anyone but himself, except for the one person who he womanizes. Anything that he doesn't view as interesting is something that he decides to leave behind, no matter the circumstances. I was bleeding to death after Jackson shot me, and he left me for dead. He didn't even come to Jackson's aid when he was also in a bad state, even if he wasn't grievously injured. Now I don't want to point to any names, but I will do that because holy shit. The lack of apathy and care for anybody can literally be connected to how you treat your kid."(edited)
6:49 PM
"Which is why I have a supposition. I want to start a rebellion. I want to save everyone from the freedom that was taken away from everybody. I want you to join me, and together we can save your son."
"I thought that if I followed the crowd I would find my identity. I became a youtuber. I tried to seek a fast pull of contradictions to feel something."
2:06 PM
"But now I realized, that if you want to be loved, you will have to learn how to love yourself. You make up your own identity and not anyone else."
2:07 PM
"I love myself because I speak weirdly. I love myself because I invade other people's privacy. There is no fault to blame on people who make mistakes, it's only a tool to push us forward to finding who we really are."
2:08 PM
"And I want to spread this message to the world. The meaning of self-acceptance: Your flaws are meaningful."
Bob visibly shudders. "That wasn't a message dedicated to her. It was dedicated to you all!"
2:11 PM
"Were you really going to shoot me? Even after everything I've just said to her? You GUYS do have it! You guys DO have a humanity inside"!(edited)
2:12 PM
"CMON EVERYONE! WE'LL RIGHT THE WRONGS OF THIS WORLD IN OUR OWN FLAWED IMAGE"!
2:13 PM
"Shoot me if you like. You're putting an illusion if you are trying to shoot me for the betterment of what. A corporation? This is the equivalent of my panic attacks."
2:14 PM
"A giant army could oppress the entire team nine system that we have been crushed upon? And yet you waste your lives shooting at one person"?
"We don't want to shoot you Bob! That's what you never seem to get!" Jackson couldn't look him in the eye. "If we stop listening and fighting back, we're going to die! There is no fighting this system! You wanna kill yourself, that's your decision to make! But I wanna live!"
"Release me. As I said, you can live your lives rich and happy. But I will be protesting and saving peoples lives out there, along with a new youtube channel in my tow. "Shaur Mann" rolls off the tongue, doesn't it? Think of this as an ideological battle instead of a real battle."(edited)
2:48 PM
"If push comes to shove, you may kill me. But the legacy may die so quick."(edited)
"Bob, I'm not shooting you because I want you to live. I'm not shooting you because we aren't allowed to kill you. It was just... It was all supposed to scare you, and then you'd listen until they figured something out."
"Does this change anything that i've said about the problems of you and this entire establishment? Doing things for a better good still doesn't take away the fact that you did all that. In fact, that supports my hypothesis even more."(edited)
"No, but you couldn't ask me to understand that beyond stupid moralizing bullshit. It's sickening. I swear every time I hold this gun now, I just hear your whiny voice begging me to stop in the back of my mind."
"So am I really superhuman? A robot? I really don't care if you shot me because I would live that. In fact, that might be worse. That's dehumanizing!"(edited)
"No, these guys are just... Really dumb. The whole Kerloe Fishery situation almost tanked the entire operation. And that whole situation at your house, I thought I was already dead. But now, if we let even 1 drop of your blood spill, all of us are probably dead."
"No, it was... No one was supposed to know about 'Bob Smith'. The Sophie girl, her dad's like a big news show host. We thought you'd collaborate and ruin everything."
"In concept, you shouldn't be calling, and in fact you should be the one being opposed by me for being a mafia head. Yes you heard it right everyone she's a mafia head"!
"I know. I'm already here." Sarah picks up. "You can stop being an impatient hag."
An explosion rings out, and the mansion shakes.
"What. What the fuck?" Jackson.
"She blew up our door! What other description would you like? Pyromaniac? Arsonist? Lunatic? Really, what’s the friendly term here?" He clutched his head, as another Team Nine member entered the alley.
"Protecting someone seems to be the same thing as kidnapping at this point." Jackson turned to the new guy. "Did she follow you? Did you get away?"
"Uh…" They stuck their head out from the alley and looked around.
"I’m not debating semantics here, Bob. You’re delusional, I’m a realist. End of the day, we’re both good people, let’s suppose. No need for your high horse."
"I don’t even know how to begin to address that philosophy…”
A gunshot rings out, and the team nine member falls over.
"Shit!" Jackson opens up the dumpster. "Hide!"
"Bob, shut up! Shut up! Shut the hell up! Please! Can you take this seriously for 5 seconds?" Jackson.
"Oh, so he's Bob. Hi, I'm Sarah." The girl. "I guess this isn't the best introduction though."
"Not kidnapping you or anything, but do you mind coming with me? Naomi wants to talk to you." Sarah does the handshake.
"You do not go with her!" Jackson.
"Also, what do you want me to do with him?" Sarah pointed at Jackson.
Jackson grabbed onto Bob's arm. "I can't let you go!"
"He's really asking for it, here." Sarah.
"I am not asking for it! Please don't shoot me!" Jackson doesn't let go.
They both resisted.
"Bob, the second I let you walk out of here, I'm dead! Can you just wait for 5 seconds" Jackson.
"Didn't you kidnap him? The 'I'm going to die' card feels pretty cheap in this context." Sarah.
"I feel like we've established it's him that's going to die." Sarah.
"Sh-Shut up! Bob, can you just be realistic and listen to me for 1 second!" Jackson.
"I'm not actually a killer. Putting people in the hospital is actually on the table, though." Sarah.
"Can you please stop being so calm about murder!" Jackson.
"Yeah, sure." Sarah.
"Sam? You know him?" Sarah.
"Stop trying to do whatever you're trying to do, and just come with me, Bob! None of this matters if we're both dead!" Jackson.
"I'm gonna shoot him." Sarah.
"STOP!" Jackson.
"I have no idea. I lost him while I was trapped in that pathetic kidnapping scheme. Thank you for saving me from that, by the way. I'm willing to pay you back for your help, even if you were rather terrible at it."
Oh yeah IMPORTANT lore but not too important. There is a city named Shelk, after Belto H. W. Shelk, just south of Avengard. This place is easy to get to from Avengard and vice versa, the only real difference is that people who live here are rich and have houses. People who live in any other arrangmement do not live there. They have the same mayor and everything it's only a different place in name
Around closing time, Hav speaks to a boring looking businessman. That same businessman returns about 15 minutes later, when Hav is gone. Does Bob keep watching?
He presses something up to the locked door, and the door swings open instantly. The man then proceeds to search through the store. He finds 1 of the cameras and quickly leaves. On his way out, he presses an object to the door. No one else appears at the store during the night.
Bob titles the video (DO NOT GO TO KERLOE FISHERY! MAN SETS UP A BOMB THANKS TO STORE OWNERS' IRRESPONSIBILITY!)(edited)
2:37 PM
Bob labels the description: "Hav Kerloe, the owner of this store has been infamous for his poor practices, including dismissiveness towards others, intentionally poisoning their food, and eating raw fish in front of customers. As a man with clear incapability to even run a store, its no wonder that he couldn't afford to hire proper security."
Bob then goes on his most popular sentasaurus youtube account and makes an announcement: "I have moved on from the Team 9 business. I want to start anew. Please subscribe to my channel here, where he links the "Saur Mann" youtube account."
Hav is at his store as normal, when an unfamiliar woman enters and tries to drag him out. The Grandmaster walks in, and drags Hav out of the store. The woman sets something under the counter, and then rushes out. Shortly after, Shawn comes in, and finds the bomb. He rushes out of the building seconds before the explosion, and then runs off towards the right. Hav and the Grandmaster once again pop up outside of the building, and head toward the left.
This doesn’t happen, because as Bob is about to leave, the Sentasaurus costume appears down the street, flying toward him at what appears to be approaching Mach 1.
Bob is caught, and the costume continues to carry him down an alleyway. The next thing Bob sees is someone who is DEFINITELY not Shawn Duveldt wearing a shitty halloween costume of a TMNT character, hiding in an alleyway.
Shawn barely avoids the suit. Bob and the suit keep flying further into a mostly empty parking lot. The only thing there is Hav, the Grandmaster, and a white van. Bob and the suit crash hard into the van. The grandmaster immediately pulls out a gun and aims it at you. ((End session sorry. This is going to be the funniest session opening ever))
((It was funny(You said "I’m going to do this character thing now" and then I responded by instead dragging you to the plot by dinosaur powered force)))
"So they went after you. Alright, don’t move out of Sarah’s sights again. That will be all." Naomi.
"Uh, the therapist thing?" Sarah spoke up for once.
"…Why don’t we just check? If you have no medical record, your parents aren’t real, and so on, that probably means Bob Smith is some kind of pseudonym. Somehow."
"I think it’s absurd normalcy is part of what makes it sound fake. But if you were born with the name Bob Smith, those records should exist right? It’s likely they’re kept under a different birth name."
"They filed the report, so yeah." She turns the phone to display a young Nathan Smith. Bob gets a headache looking at the man who bears 0 resemblance to him.
Nothing. This is a completely normal face. And, looking closer, despite Bob having never seen this man in his life, he feels more familiar than Bob himself.
Unconscious, Bob's mind drifted away from the topic at hand, and produced a new view.
Bob Smith stood on a large stage, as he wore a bright yellow suit. Around him were Ethfan, Carolyn, Hav, Ehn, and Sarah all wearing the same suits. Dozens of background dancers danced behind them.
Carolyn began singing. "It seems today... That all you see... Is violence in movies and sex on TV."
"But where are those good old fashioned values...?" Ethfan sang as well.
Everyone except Bob begins singing. "On which we used to rely? Lucky there's a Sentasaurus Guy. Lucky there's a man who... Positively can do... All the things that make us..."
The following scene plays out on the television.
Jackson Day: "Jackson Day, Jackson Day, I found cigarettes in Jackson Day's jacket."
Jackson Day: "Jackson Dat, were you smoking cigarettes?"
Jackson Day: "No, Jackson Day."
Jackson Day looks at Jackson Day.
Jackson Day: "Well, he's lying. There's no doubt about that."
Looks back at Jackson Day
Jackson Day: "Jackson Day, I'm afraid your punishment will be four hours in the fishpit."
Jackson Day pushes a button and the floor in front of them opens up.
Jackson Day: "Now maybe that'll give you some time to think about what you've done."
Jackson Day: "Aw, man!"
Jackson Day jumps into the snakepit
Jackson Day: "That'll teach him."
Jackson Day walks over to a metal door
Jackson Day: "And Jackson Day, I'm afraid you've earned a day in the chamber of fire... for tattling on your Jackson Day."
"No, thank you. See, that's the worst we got is, uh, Jemima's Witnesses." Ethfan.
1:38 PM
The theme song plays again and the room shifts over to the kitchen. Bob, Carolyn, Hav, and Sarah are in the kitchen.
"Mom, my lips are too thin. Can I please get collagen injections?" Sarah.
Carolyn speaks. "Sarah, you don't need to change the way you look. You know, most of the world's problems stem from poor self-image." There is finally a cutaway gag.
1:41 PM
((Holy fuck I am not repeating this. How is this a real show))
It’s back into the Smith home. Honestly, I don’t really know what else to do. Asking Hav was pretty useless. I expected the situational comedy to be more entertaining for longer. How about a drama? The building reshapes it’s art style into one resembling a more serious show.
Honestly, I don’t exactly know how to continue this story. Dramas tend to require a more structured narrative rather than disjointed events. I don’t really have the experience for it. For now, I’ll just give Bob control of the Hav character.
Jackson Day is in front of the team nine mansion. "Bob Smith! I am evil!" I suppose in this analogy he would stand for capitalism. But as much as I hate him, he’s far too irrelevant a figure to really stand for anything in reality. A minor distraction before the main plot.
Bob looks onward into to the sunset. Bob imagines the idealized versions of everyone as they sit next to me. A reformed Jackson Day. Sarah Stanley, her brother and father together in happiness. Naomi Kidink standing with me, her hand around her shoulder. Hav and Ethfan applaud as they congratulate me: "Good job, son!" Carolyn and Sean sit in the background; Carolyn's father has finally been released from his imprisonment. Perhaps Sam was there too, finally pardoned by society and willing to atone for himself. He sits next to his mother.
2:55 PM
We look toward a cliff to the city of Avengard. It's beautiful. It's at peace. Some of the people I can see towards the citizens are wearing Sentasaurus suits, symbolizing their freedom.
2:58 PM
But the world cannot be without conflict. They come. The remnants of the despicable Team Nine. They come. But the citizens fight back. They call for me.
2:58 PM
Bob transform into the Sentasaurus. Sooner or later, everyone sitting at the cliff has turned into Sentasauruses as well. They jump off to fight once more.(edited)
3:00 PM
"Yes. YES"
3:02 PM
Bob imagines all of this, and he creates the tv show" Sentasaurus guy" once again, but the cast are now the idealized versions he wants to see.
Ehn/PC
Unconscious, Bob's mind drifted away from the topic at hand, and produced a new view.
Bob Smith stood on a large stage, as he wore a bright yellow suit. Around him were Ethfan, Carolyn, Hav, Ehn, and Sarah all wearing the same suits. Dozens of background dancers danced behind them.
Carolyn began singing. "It seems today... That all you see... Is violence in movies and sex on TV."
"But where are those good old fashioned values...?" Ethfan sang as well.
"No. If you let anyone close to you, they'll just use you. Hurt you. You have to keep a layer of separation there. Treat everyone like a client or... Some other kind of tool, and you'll be a lot happier like that."
"The deeper the suffering goes, the harder I work, the harder I learn."
4:39 PM
"And I am a man who has seen both perspectives from myself"
4:39 PM
"The push and pull between Jackson day only hurt harder when I saw him as evil. I may not have saved him, but knowing that I understood that inside he was happy and that he was humane, I was happier"
4:40 PM
"The bullet wounds he gave me were wounds of understanding. I knew what I had to do"
"You learn from suffering? I suffered all my childhood, and all I’ve learned is to close myself off. Does that makes my suffering worth it? Did having the shittiest family ever become worth it because I learned people can be evil?"
"No. That’s what I need clients for. Friends aren’t people who help you. They’re people you hang around, who are just… Fun to be around. Someone who’s presence gives you meaning on its own."
Ouroboros texts like they're close, but Sarah responds very dryly. Harriet is obviously enamored with Sarah, and Sarah responds semi-kindly. She does however also insult you in her texts.
5:54 PM
Sean emails back the following:
I appreciate the information. Any details? Their abilities? Keys?
Irregardless, the deadline for the agreement about Sam has already passed. Are you going to ignore the threat you've made about spreading the video? Of course, I would prefer if I suffered no consequences. But I want you to understand one thing: a hollow threat makes all further ones worthless. Once it becomes known you won't go through with it, you lose all influence you could've had. At this point, even if you held someone at gunpoint they'll think it is a bluff.
I know this sounds like I'm trying to make you ruin my life, but I just want to help you avoid mistakes. You are a valuable partner for me, after all.
"She's like that for everyone, but... I tried to find out more on his operation. I tried to force them, and now I'm trying to force Harriet to let me in. One of those obsessive controlling types, so she's mad at me for it."
"Yeah, I think everyone's agreed he's dead at this point." She sighs. "You're free to think of me as friend or family, or whatever if you want to... I can't stop you. But I just want to see things in a way that won't hurt me. Can't you respect that much?"
Edward Blythe poisoned his entire cult Edlightenment, leaving only himself and his daughter Carolyn alive. The case was solved by lone wolf Howard Scott, who became a very noteworthy detective due to his involvement in this major case. Blythe is still in prison these days.(edited)
Ouroboros is the founder of King Burger. He sold the company to Leading Image Blender Inc. 20 years ago, and it immediately crashed and died. He recently repurchased the rights from Sean Niebel and is restarting the company.(edited)
It's just repeating information about him. His real identity isn't listed or anything though. There are also claims of having seen him fly around, which is now a thread on a conspiracy messaging board.
"So you keep saying. But I suffered, and I don't feel happier for it. This is some weird stockholm syndrome thing. You're falling in love with your own pain."
"Well, if you want to have a house and you have sticks, you build a house yourself."
9:34 PM
"Then you have a home you can sleep in and livestream"
9:35 PM
"OF COUSE im not saying that sam should suffer and figure out a big problem himself. That's why after he gets accused of being a terrorist, I will clear his name."(edited)
"But what if you never finish that house? What if you spend your entire life chasing some dream of a completed house... And then you just never find it. Lots of people have dreams. I don't, but... I can understand what drives someone to have a dream. But if you live only for that dream, you aren't really living at all. And when you complete it, how do you know you'll be happy? How do you know you'll ever even complete your dreams? Don't you think it'd be best to enjoy the downtime while you have it. This car isn't the most comfortable thing ever... But it's a period of silence. You get to talk, think, feel, etc. all without the obligations of your dream. It's an opportunity for short-term happiness. And you were just going to sleep over it, skip a chance at some kind of happiness now. It's like... It's like you're addicted to suffering. If you keep suffering, you'll achieve happiness. If you keep suffering, you'll grow. What's wrong with you now? Why do you keep chasing suffering wherever you can?"
"why did I get shot so many times? Why does Kidink hate me? Why does everyone in this world treat me like dirt when all I want is simple love and acceptance?"
9:46 PM
"I'm the main protagonist of my own story"
9:47 PM
"I am the chosen one. The main protagonist has to win. The main protagonist gets the girl. The main protagonist has to spread a message."
9:48 PM
"I-i'm not like that. I'm not a robot. I'm not a chess piece in some sick game. I'm not like that. I'm free, I tell you. I'm free!"
She stares at him for a moment. "I admire the confidence, I guess. Even if it's definitely... Strange phrasing. But if you're so free, why do you think you're in some kind of story where you're destined to win. Isn't that kind of predetermined fate the opposite of your freedom? If you're really free, you should be free to lose just as much as you're free to win."
"I-I AM free to lose. EVERYONE is free to lose. It just so happens that im actually doing something about losing, instead of standing there and taking it like a wimp"(edited)
9:53 PM
"I don't really think i'm the main protagonist of my own story. I DON'T. But I delude myself because I am a free thinker with a free mind."
"But it feels like you're chasing that suffering at this point. Don't you want to take a moment to just... Relax. Have a normal conversation where we don't just load it with our emotional baggage."
"That's why I'm so hated! I LOVE being hated. Because I'm free. I can be incomprehensible all I want. I don't care whether darfee existed. I don't care if wilford was the good person in our debate. I don't care if my speech manner is inconsistent."
9:59 PM
"I don't care if I'm some lame-ass D&D character who is hated by everyone and everything because nothing is understandable about me and I'm just a burden for other D&D characters who have "clever" writing. Because you know what, I can be free!"
10:01 PM
"NORMAL? NO ONE EVER TEACHES ME WHAT NORMAL EVER IS? ooooohhh, I want to be normal. But then everyone laughs at me for failing at being normal. I can't just go to a therapist and talk this out. She's a fucking shrink who's father runs a cult!"
10:03 PM
"THIS IS WHY I HAVE TO LISTEN TO HER TALK! AND TALK! THIS IS THE MESSAGE THE WORLD IS GIVING ME! I HAVE TO LISTEN TO HER! "
"Normal is... Well, normal isn't a real thing, I guess. Everyone has a different understanding of what normal is. And all life really is is everyone's idea of 'normal' clashing. But I think the way people see normal is that it's like forgettable. You could have a million different conversations, and this one wouldn't stick out in the slightest. That's my idea of normal. You keep it lighthearted and normal by not making it matter. When your life's so abnormal, maybe normal things feel weird, but in an ideal world we could have a conversation where nothing we say matters. We're free from our emotional baggage, in a sense, because we can talk about other things. Like music, food, funny looking cars... I dunno, just something that doesn't matter."
"What happens when we... I'm not sure. Honestly, I don't really want to think of it. No one really knows for sure. But I guess you can shape uncertainty to fit whatever agenda you want. It's best not to live your life off of things you don't understand."
"Like... Okay, let's just do something dumb. Let's throw on some music." She scrolls through her radio channels at random. "And then we can just rate it. It's pointless, but maybe it'll be fun."
((I thought it was really good actually. 1984 gif you cannot skip to the plot created some funny material and the ideology debate was really interesting))
"Like... Okay, let's just do something dumb. Let's throw on some music." She scrolls through her radio channels at random. "And then we can just rate it. It's pointless, but maybe it'll be fun."
"It's basically trashy irony hipster music that tries to be funny so it goes on the radio. Little do the artists know that this encourages unhealthy behavior where OTHER people can believe they can be funny and post garbage sequences of notes on the radio intentionally. And then radio stations lose what they are actually designed to do, to promote modern music to encourage uprising music stars to make a difference in their lives."
"Musicians are entertaining. They exist solely to be entertaining. What’s the difference between an emotional classic and music so awful it’s funny. They both achieve the same effect."
"Does it matter? Some people are born wealthy, some people earn it. At the end of the day, they’re both wealthy. It’s the same end result, even if one is lazier."
"Well, if money exists, then everyone who agrees it does gets to have it. They all benefit financially. Because if wealth didn’t exist, they wouldn’t have it."
"I guess I could understand the perspective. I enjoy the complex chords to them. It feels like music these days fall into these generic rhythms and melodies without much thought into them. Which is why I enjoy music that are decidedly less mainstream than whatever pop song is on."
"Actually, but would driving be inherently more complex? You learn driving skills by going it on for an hour. And if you sit in a bus, you have to listen to babies, and people talking on their phones!"
4:22 PM
"So in the end, you decided yourself to take a complex pathway yourself. That's hypocrisy to your own ideology."
"And I guess this could apply to everything else too! You say that you like simple things? But don't you have an ideology that revolves around people being tools? Why did you choose to bomb the team nine base instead of calling the police as a normal people should? It seems to me like you are lying to yourself to normalize things that shouldn't be normalized."
4:27 PM
"Why do you call Naomi bitchy when its safer to call her by her own name? Why do you choose to follow me around if you don't agree with anything I say?"
"…Maybe. But I just prefer thinking of things as equally normal. People and things, all of them are equally irrelevant to me. I don’t think that’s too big of a crime to want."
"What defines as normal differs from perspective to perspectives....." Bob mutters.
4:32 PM
"That could mean... what defines as anything can differ from perspective from perspective."
4:32 PM
"Sam left his mom. But does that make him a person thats in the wrong for doing so?"
4:33 PM
"Sam is selfish. Sam is needy. But what if its because of us that he can't comprehend on what is the right thing to do?"
4:35 PM
"Am I a bad person for trying to save sam, because I don't understand his perspective? I see things from my perspective. But that doesn't mean its normal to others. It's like music. What people see as good is bad to others."
4:36 PM
"Who is the main protagonist of this story?"
4:36 PM
"If there is no main protagonist, can it be a story?"
She hasn't seen her child in a "few years." "Few." The word "few" has three letters in it, to represent its smallness. We can assume that for about 3 years, we weren't present in our household.
Nathan isn't "dead." She doesn't look so horrible, and there lacks an expression of sadness in her eyes. Usually, when you cry, your eyes are red. She isn't crying tears of joy or sadness, meaning that my presence isn't all that special to her. She still is happy, so I guess there is a sense of familiarity to me.
I don't look like the child known as Nathan. I look nothing alike to him. But if these people recognize me, it isn't a form of delusion. They don't seem to look manic in the slightest. Perhaps one could assume I took plastic surgery maybe? An accident? It explains the nose deformity.
Why would they be happy to see me? Usually, when you grow as a person, people want to see that result after a long break of your family. This can connect to what I think my parents were like. I have panic attacks. I could have them still. They would logistically believe that they would stop because I had the courage to leave to start a life anew.
And a final extra fact, supposedly her husband is still alive. Sarah did say, parents. with an "s." And there are in fact two people in that report. A mother's name and a fathers name. Of course, they can both be mothers. I don't particularly care about the basics. But for now, this is whats normal to me, so I will go with a father figure.
4:59 PM
PERSPECTIVE SWITCH BEGIN.
5:00 PM
Alright. now I have to look into how she would see the world. She's a bit old so complex emotions are a bit hard on her. Stereotypical nurturing grandmas exist because they are senile for common sense. Well, she doesn't look THAT old. But thats besides the point.
5:01 PM
Alright. It's go time. I swap bodies and look at myself at the doorstep.
5:04 PM
"Wonder who could that me at my doorstep? Could it be my husband? Suprising that he could even get groceries this quickly, seeing how much he gets sidetracked these days."
5:06 PM
Bobs mother opens the door.
5:07 PM
"N-Nathan! I can't believe it myself! Its my boy! I remember when he used to wear clothes of star wars! Look at his outfit. It's simply chic! He's even got a girlfriend.... she looks so shy."(edited)
5:07 PM
"He survived the accident well... I'm truly blessed."
5:10 PM
"Now, now... what could he be doing at a time like this, talking to this worn-out old bag? I have nothing left to teach him."
5:10 PM
Bob finalizes this perspective, and the music stops. A drumroll plays and he decides to respond back.
5:10 PM
"I'm sorry mom. I still have panic attacks. I'm worthless."
5:11 PM
"I may look different, but I'm the same person I was before."
"What." Sarah follows as well.
Mrs Smith leads them to a dining room where a man is having a cup of coffee. "Nathan's back."
"Ah, Nate! How are you?" Mr Smith.
"Well, it was uh… Few years back. Me and you got into an argument, got a tad violent, so you ran away. Typical kids of today. Take 1 beating and then think they run the place." Mr. Smith.
Sarah shifts uncomfortably.
"Did who find you? You just came here by yourself, didn’t you?" Mr Smith.
"Let’s… Let’s talk about how awful you are as parents. Like, how much he wanted to leave." Sarah.
"You just left. What do you want us to say?" Mr Smith.
"I dunno… Hit him! Show him how much you sucked! Get him to understand why he left!" Sarah.
Mr Smith smacks Bob in the face, but it strangely seems to stop millimetres before Bob's face.
"Well, I guess it all wasn't bad for you. Hey, I got out of the house, right? Win win? You made me suffer, and thanks to you I'm a better person than I left off before."
6:34 PM
"Anyways, this has been a wonderful reunion. It seems that i don't remember half of what the hell even happened here. It's quite humorous. I guess all that panic attacks gave me amnesia."(edited)
6:34 PM
"Ain't that quaint. Well, I guess I better get going."
"Yes? Were you not aware?" Mrs Smith.
"Look, it was... You were supposed to find your 'real' parents, and then they'd be shitty and awful, so you could stop idolizing the concept! No more chasing maniacs and calling it family! It was... It was a good idea, at the time. You weren't supposed to meet them and take child abuse like some kind of positive event in your life!" Sarah buries her head in her hands.
"Well, Sarah. This has been an enlightening experience. For a second, I was kind of scared. But you've taught me a valuable lesson. Perspective? Other protagonists? This entire act has shown me that there are people in this world who want to shift my heroism back up a notch. I will spend the rest of my life purifying you and the others."
6:46 PM
"I really am the main protagonist of this story. I am an all-loving hero. I am grateful to you three."
6:47 PM
"Sam should be coming back right? We better get home to give him a happy renunion."
Sarah lived a life of child abuse by both her father and brother.
Sarah supposedly sees people as tools. When people are put into a bad household, it is perfectly normal for them to develop bad habits their parents give off to them.
It's highly likely that these toxic relationships were misogynistic in some form, which usually has to do with objectification. This is where the tools part comes in, doesn't it?
Because she has to normalize this, anyone who intrudes on the opposite spectrum of her ideology, she considers a threat.
Even then, Sarah had her hesitation. She looked uncomfortable having to obligate herself into this master plan.
She said it was for "me." Yet she views people as tools. Why was this?
"She had to suffer! It was necessary for her! It's her fault for not understanding!"(edited)
7:07 PM
"This entire perspective thing is stupid! Don't I have enough inner turmoil already?"
7:08 PM
PERSPECTIVE SWITCH BEGIN.
7:08 PM
No.(edited)
7:09 PM
I don't think i need a perspective switch this time.(edited)
7:09 PM
the answer is clear what I have to do.(edited)
7:09 PM
I've been hiding my emotions this entire time.(edited)
7:10 PM
"This is stupid! I'm the hero of this story!"
7:10 PM
"I'm not supposed to feel empathy for the flawed! I'm supposed to fix them!"
7:11 PM
The music stops in Bob's head.
7:12 PM
Bob starts crying.
7:12 PM
((Session paused here. I have a piano recital so we can continue this tommorrow))
((I had a different cliffhanger in mind so I’m going to do that first))
7:18 PM
The Elusive Sentasaurus flies in from above out of nowhere, crashes on the ground, bounces from the impact, crashes back onto the ground, and slides forward from the momentum until it comes to a standstill next to the car. It stops moving. ((End session))(edited)
What? No, he's not supposed to be here. I said that he would die. Why is he here? This doesn't make any sense. When I command someone to die, they do it. It's not an optional thing. He's supposed to be eternally tortured in some unknown location. Did he escape? How... Why did I let him escape? Was the suit my definition of an unknown location? I guess I'll have to be more clear from now on. This reappearance is absurd. Just... Absurd. I suppose it's not too late to return things to normal. Jackson is badly bleeding out, he will not make it much longer. There. All returns to normal. Though, I would much prefer if he hadn't already come to ruin your life any longer, Nathan. This will suit my purposes for now.
12:47 PM
"This guy? How the hell did he know where we are?" Sarah.
"You don't deserve death jackson! No one could ever deserve a death like you could if you weren't here."
1:06 PM
"Would you have rather been trapped wherever you were?"(edited)
1:09 PM
"We're people, jackson. As I said, I don't know if you will ever listen to me after this is all finished. I don't even know why I'm doing this after you killed me multiple times. But isn't that what makes life valuable? That peoples flaws can be turned around to do good?"
"No, I… There’s still so much I have to do. I can’t just die such a forgettable death… The tunnel, I have to be near the end of it. You know, it’s always darkest before the dawn… That’s what they say." Jackson.
"Bob, do you really want to help him?" Sarah.
He’s not going to make it. "And the rest of Team Nine… Are they okay? Did they get their reward yet?"
"They’re in the hospital. Which, if you weren’t stupid, you’d have done too." Sarah.
"I’m not sure. I was never really the free-thinking type… I guess I expected life to pick for me." Jackson.
"Bob!" Sarah grabbed him the collar. "Face reality. He’s not gonna make it! …The most you can do to help him is put him out of his misery."
"No!" Jackson. "I’m gonna live!"
"Bob… What are you talking about? What’s this supposed to accomplish? Am I supposed to survive through the power of my own wishing? I… Is that what you do?" Jackson.
"Bob!" Sarah.(edited)
"Rich and happy." Jackson.
"I was trying to help you, Bob. I was helping you let go! You need to let go and move on from the past. Nathan Smith, the elusive Sentasaurus, who gives a shit? You’re free! No family, no ties! But you keep trapping yourself!" Sarah pulls out her gun and holds it out to Bob. "Unlock the cage. Kill the past. Then decide who you’ll be… For yourself."
"YOU'RE TRAPPING YOURSELF TOO! WHY? WHY DID YOU DO THAT FOR MY SAKE? I SAW YOU, YOU HATED EVERY SECOND OF WHAT YOU HAVE SEEN! DO YOU THINK PROJECTING THE PAST ONTO OTHERS CAN HELP YOU ESCAPE EITHER?"
1:52 PM
"DO YOU THINK USING PEOPLE AS TOOLS SOLVES YOUR PROBLEMS! IS THIS WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPIER! OBJECTIFYING OTHERS BECAUSE THEY OBJECTIFIED YOU!"
"Fine! You want the truth? I didn’t do it for you! I did it because I couldn’t stand to see someone else going through what I did! I did it because I just couldn’t stand the sight of you! I couldn’t stand the sight of someone who could so happily hurt himself day after day! Waiting for someone to come through and care for you does nothing! There’s no one in this world who can save you! No one who can save anyone! Everyone… Everyone just pushes each other away and acts like it’s the other’s fault! I’m tired of it! Does that make you happy? Does the truth make you happy, huh? Does no one caring about you make you happy?" Sarah.
Bob is crying. "Why! Why did you want to extrapolate meaning out of me? You are the main protagonist of your own story! I'm not! If my sight truly made you miserable, why didn't you say anything? Why do you continue to hang out with somebody that reminds me of the past?"
"NONE OF US ARE NORMAL! I'M MENTALLY ILL! HAVE YOU SEEN THE THINGS I HAVE DONE?"(edited)
2:07 PM
"Its...alright jackson. I'm sure suffering for success is something I did too."
2:10 PM
"Sarah. You aren't locked into boxes of story beats. Your lives are made up of choices."
2:11 PM
"I'm a mentally ill freak. I get it. I don't know if I will get over it or recede. Because in my perspective, this is the choice I am making for my own story to go. You can't decide for other people to decide your fate. You have to do it yourself."(edited)
2:11 PM
Bob gives the gun back to sarah.
2:12 PM
"I've given this chance for you to see this loud and clear. With this gun, you can get rid of any of us on what you believe makes you happier."(edited)
2:13 PM
"I guess.... this is why Sam left, didn't he? He made a choice for his story to go somewhere else. It pissed me off, but it was what makes him happier too."
2:14 PM
"he saw his own problems, and he wanted to confront them in his own way. I respect that."
"Don’t make me out to be the villain here!" Sarah appears on the edge of tears. "I did… I did what I had to do. Nothing more."
"Bob… You’re kind of incredible, huh? You’ve been withstanding way more pain than I ever did… And I never even stopped to consider it. You think… You think maybe my prize went to you?" Jackson.
"If I stopped believing our pain meant something… I don’t think I could go on. That’s why I’m sure there’ll be something waiting for you too." Jackson.(edited)
"…People are made up of those they met in their life. My brother Harry said that once. That we’re all just little bits of those around us, mashed into something new. That’s why he left everyone too, why he decided to choose who’s in his life. But I think that’s really terrifying. I’m me. I don’t want to be someone else, to be pieces of other people. That’s why the only person in my life is me. But… I guess you 2 didn’t have that luxury. So for this, you might as well just be mirrors of each other, right? Don’t you think that’s kind of disturbing? Letting people into your life?" Sarah.
"I still made myself into the person I wanted to be. I threw away my family, my past, and so on... Do you really think any of my past is left in me? Or are you just so clung to your own that you can't accept what growth means?" Sarah points her gun at Jackson. "You have to move on."
"I don't want to die here!" Jackson.
"But don't you want to choose who you are for yourself? To stop letting those around you decide everything for you?" Sarah is still aiming the gun at Jackson.
"I.......but this is how we learn about the world! We look at contradictions in ourselves thanks to other people around us? Being humane isn't all about just having free will, but its about how we can develop ourselves to be better people!"
2:58 PM
"Making choices isn't just doing whatever you want, it's also about taking what other people say and giving it meaning to make our life valuable."(edited)
3:02 PM
"Maybe the systems that restrict our freedom cannot be beaten. But that doesn't mean that we can't try. And if we don't, we can learn things in order to develop as people, and that's.... that's how you truly are free......? Right?"
3:02 PM
"The light at the end of the tunnel... it can mean anything you want."
3:04 PM
"You're right Sarah... suffering isn't good.....suffering in itself doesn't solve anything. That's where jackson is wrong........"
3:04 PM
"It's what you learn from suffering."
3:05 PM
"Sarah, in a way, this is what you learned, right? Maybe i didn't change your perspective on things. But in a way, thanks to my help, you've fortified your own ideology."
"..." She scoffs. "Say whatever you want. It's my job to help you now. So I'm going to help you. I'll put your past out of it's misery. I don't mind if you're too stubborn to thank me. But freedom...? You'll have the chance to take it back now. You're welcome." Sarah takes a step toward Jackson, still keeping the gun aimed at his head. "You got any last words you want to say to him?"
Jackson is breathing heavily.
This effort doesn't even need to be considered. It fails. On any scale, there is only a single person who would ever allow as horrible an existence as Jackson's to persevere. And in all honesty, that person may be the weakest of all. You, Nathan, don't have the strength to do it.
"I guess that's a no." Sarah.
"Waaaaaait! There's more to my life than Bob! Can't I grow too? Can't my life have meaning too? I just want a meaningful life... After everything I've done, can't I be happy? Don't I deserve to be happy?" Jackson.
"...You're going to die." Sarah bites her lip. "There's nothing you can do to change that now. I'm taking the pain away from you now."
"But that pain is me! This... It's all me! I don't want it to die, I don't want... I'm not ready to leave this world without a single good memory!" Jackson. "Who gave you the right to choose for me!?"
"...Ugh. Grrrrrah!" Sarah drops the gun. "Fuck. I can't do it. After all the people I've shot, I freeze up here. Fuck! Agh!"
Is this some kind of joke? This absurd anomaly. Why wouldn't she kill him? Why hasn't he died alone? Is this the force of his suffering? Does his will for even a single second of happiness trump my own? But... It's always been his choice to be this cruel. Sure, circumstances around him may have created the monster that became him, but that doesn't begin to absolve him of his actions. It shouldn't even begin to justify his most basic wrongs. And yet he's still alive. Do I pity him? Am I sorry for him? I... Don't... Understand... But maybe just this once. Just this once, I can allow him something. I suppose that certain pitiful quality about him is better than you, FB. I'll just refunnel my hatred for him into a far more powerful one against you. That can resolve that.
"I don't know, I just..." She sighs. "Whatever. Be whoever you want to be, do whatever you want to do. But when we get back to Naomi, I'll have her split us up. Do you agree to that much?"
Jackson breathes a deep sigh of relief.
Bob is in the suit.
"I mean... The wouldn't know you, no. They're... Dead. I guess we'll never really know what kind of life you lead before you became you." Sarah.
"...Can you take me? Please." Jackson.
It's a decently sized graveyard, but it's not hard to locate the Smiths. They have a shared grave with the words 'In death, all reunite' carved on the headstone.
"I'll never know who they meant to me, but from what I recall, it was a way to feel safe. Someone close that could tell me that I'm not alone in this world."
4:32 PM
"Panic attacks.....they always knew, or I at least think they knew that they would know whenever I had one."
"For me, I’d say it was team nine. People I could rely on, who’d side with me even when I dug us far too deep to get out of. But they’re all the way across the state, aren’t they. They’re probably not even conscious enough to realize that… I’m going to die. I can feel it coming already. But I took your family away from you, for a while. Bob… If that’s who you want to be… You’ve got them again. Do you think I could… pass on with a family? Even if it’s yours?" Jackson.
"But they’re not even your family. What happiness could that possibly bring you?" Sarah.
"If you want that to be the truth, then so be it. You can find meaning in anything."
4:39 PM
"But you don't need my family to feel something. You're like a brother to me, Jackson."(edited)
4:41 PM
"People like the grandmaster, they can't give me happiness. How does a person make a choice to understand someone who comes put of nowhere to call him his father?"
"…Yeah." Jackson hugs Bob. "…This is weird. I didn’t really think we’d ever be on the same side. Guess bleeding out does something to you, huh?"
"…" Sarah.
"Yeah… I did that. Together, us. We made it all happen. Guess the power of happiness wasn’t through suffering for myself… Because right now, it’s us… I’m just happy not to be alone." Jackson.
"…Fuck." Sarah mutters this word and then hugs both.
"Your friend. Yours." She adds quickly. "…Just so we’re clear, that hug didn’t mean anything. Okay? Just go ahead and forget it. I was just… Curious what it felt like. That’s all." She drops him when they’re far enough in.
"…People are made up of those they met in their life. My brother Harry said that once. That we’re all just little bits of those around us, mashed into something new. That’s why he left everyone too, why he decided to choose who’s in his life. But I think that’s really terrifying. I’m me. I don’t want to be someone else, to be pieces of other people. That’s why the only person in my life is me. But… I guess you 2 didn’t have that luxury. So for this, you might as well just be mirrors of each other, right? Don’t you think that’s kind of disturbing? Letting people into your life?" Sarah.
((I don't fee like indicating anything about Ethfan through my rating of your quote choice. Naomi is a good quote. The other 2 are just nothing but I assume you did not have much to pick from))
((“I never asked to be bailed out by anyone else. If I could’ve found a solution on my own, at least that would’ve been entertaining." Is thus a good Sam Quote))
"I.... I didn't save anyone back there, didn't I?...."
2:14 PM
"Sarah.... I treated her like garbage! I brought back past traumas! And... and after everything I've done, I get a hug?"(edited)
2:16 PM
"Jackson..... I killed him. It was me and no one else! If I didn't just run off because of orders, then none of this could have happened! Why did he hug me too?"
2:17 PM
"No... I completely understand. When your dying, your blood loses control. Without blood, you heart cant circulate, and when you lose blood, your brain gets numb."
"He.... he did that.... because he was cold and lonely. He... could have hugged a cactus! I didn't matter to them."
2:18 PM
"I... I didn't die."(edited)
2:19 PM
"No... that's right! If I just accepted my sins now, I would have gone to hell. That's what I need to do. I may not have saved anybody, but I've learned a valuable lesson!"(edited)
2:21 PM
"For Jackson, and Sarah. For everyone that I have affected in my life. I will no longer be the protagonist. I will be the side character that I should have been from the start. To help other people and make them happy."(edited)
She doesn't answer the question. "I'm disappointed flying costumes don't even elicit surprise from me anymore." She unlocks the door and moves to the other side. "Get in."
"I asked as many people as I could if they'd seen him, with an image attached. And it was simply one of the towns I checked. I believe at this point we've covered... Everywhere he could reasonably have made it to. And yet no one has seen him..."
"Well the first option is that a town might be hiding him. For whatever reason, someone has decided to help him cover up the fact he is there. In such a case, it would mean even a picture wouldn't make them tell us. But even with this idea, it's basically a needle in a haystack."
"I certainly wouldn't call him pure, or good hearted. I raised my son the best I could, and he could never be bothered to even try to return the favor."
"Everything he did had a reason, I'm sure. And his ending will be happy for everyone right?"
3:22 PM
Sean did not tell anyone. Sean did NOT tell anyone.
3:23 PM
Okay, sure YOU think that Sean didn't tell anyone, because you don't think YOU acted like a crazy person in front of Sean. No one wants to talk to a crazy person and give them the honest truth.(edited)
"But im sure it will end with you and Sam getting a bigger understand of each other, right? There will be a happy ending for you two."
3:24 PM
Ok, perhaps Sean didn't break the camels back. Maybe Sam himself did.
3:25 PM
You pissed him off dearly! Everyone pissed him off dearly. Every time you act like your in charge of anything, people die. Sam had no one to live for. He killed himself.
"A bigger understanding? Like what? That when he miserably failed to do anything I asked, he was secretly doing it for me? That kind of cliché only happens in movies." A bit of sadness starts to creep into her voice.
"Of course not." She sighed and looked out of the window in resignation. "It's downright cruel of him to make me do this. Really, why did I end up with a son like him?"
Naomi has to find Sam. It's a mother's duty, as she said to himself. But, duty could mean anything? Prehaps Naomi said "mother" and "duty" as two seperate things. Naomi is a mother, so that means it's someone elses duty for Naomi to find her.
Following this line of logic, It makes sense on why she is on such a wild goose chase, despite the fact that Sam despises her, and Naomi knows so. She isn't happy when she has to find Sam, which makes sense why she sent me and Sarah to find her.
This is easy. Naomi does not like Sam. She is not happy with running around to find him all the time. But this leads to another problem.
Does Naomi Value the truth?
She wasn't all too happy when I talked to her about falling in love with her.
But prehaps the truth can make her happy? After all, I..... if its hard to admit. To many people, its an easy line of logic for me to want to kill Sam Kidink. The light at the end of the tunnel can mean anything, like how a truth can mean anything for other people.
I'm an objectively bad person, so knowing that I will get retribution for killing Sam to these people would make them happy!
That's right! Even if I don't think I did it, people think I could have done it! And deserved it! Objectively, I'm making a bunch of more people happy!
3:45 PM
Bob finalizes he deduction and makes his move. The music stops.(edited)
3:45 PM
"Then I won't sugarcoat it. I..... I murdered Sam Kidink."
"I didn't murder him in cold blood, but I was responsible for conspiring a murder."
3:51 PM
"I... I was angry I him. I hated him! I told them. Sean Nibel. That he was a terrorist. That has to be the only reason why they've been gone for so long......they got to him, and killed him in my place."(edited)
3:52 PM
Not enough.
3:53 PM
"I may have seen... by accident.....the results of it."
"Sean Niebel is not a member of the mob." She sighed and pulled out her phone and showed a picture of Sam Kidink. "However, the fact you tried to kill him remains concerning."
"Me and Sarah... we investigated the forest upstate....."
4:01 PM
Bob sees a vision of Sarah and Jackson hugging him. Jackson slowly fades away. Bob sees Sarah hugging him while Bob sits next to the corpse of Sam Kidink.
4:01 PM
"It was that, where we found the corpse of Sam Kidink."
"I recall gravely his last words. "Rich and Happy."
4:03 PM
"I told Sarah to dispose of the corpse, because I didn't know if it was the right thing to tell you the truth. Maybe i murdered someone else by accident. But now I know."(edited)
4:05 PM
"It's... it's not likely Sarah could even call the police anyways! She... she murdered them all!" Bob laughs maniacally.
"Do you want more information about his death? Sure. One of the last things he asked of me is " Do you think I could… pass on with a family? Even if it’s yours?"
4:20 PM
"He didn't give a shit about you! After his life was on the LINE. Boo. hoo."(edited)
"Good." She brings him back in the car and shuts the door. "Unfortunately, I can't kill you yet either. So if you want your good memory in the short time I can afford to spare you, you should be obedient. Then I won't have to make things worse."
"She may not like it now but in the years to come, I hope she'll become the happiest woman alive."
2:09 PM
"But... but I can't just...! Sit here and wait for myself to die! I have to make everyone I've hurt happy!"
2:10 PM
"No..... but doing things unplanned always ended up with a flat hand. If there was a god somewhere looking at me and judging me for trying to kill Hav Kerloe, I think he would have found me stupid."
An unfamiliar man. He must be affiliated with Naomi, so he must know to them, I'm a vicious killer. But I also don't want to paint things the wrong way if he isn't. After all, I wouldn't really want him scared of me, right?
He reaches out his hand for a handshake, before pulling it back in realization. "I'm Stan Kidink. Naomi's husband. She said... Looking at me would hopefully make you realize something? I'm... Not really sure what."
He dodges the question, visibly uncomfortable. "You... Must've really annoyed her... I didn't think she was the kind of person to kidnap someone. Unless this isn't a kidnapping? But I don't... Really see why it wouldn't be?"
"He's dead. I've killed him out of spite. Even blackmailed Sarah to shut the police down and move the body. Team nine gets quite around a lot."
2:24 PM
"He was at risk for ruining my benefactor's plans. We planned to kill his friend, Sophie as well, but I gave Jackson the honors to do so, and he failed. I don't know where he ran off to, but I don't blame him."(edited)
First off, Naomi Kidink. So far, what I have just revealed to her was that I've murdered Sam Kidink.
2:40 PM
Oh yes. color coding.
A green line is that for sure, this is a benevolent act to the character in question.
A yellow line means that this is a probable benevolent act to the character in question, as not enough information was collected to confirm it would be in their benefit, or there are some negative effects kicked into the mix.
A red line means that I am unsure if its benevolent, based off of minimal information.
2:42 PM
"Obviously, saying that there is somebody who murdered your child isn't going to go well with everyone, but Naomi hates Sam so it's okay. Get's a yellow."(edited)
"Naomi asked me to watch you. I'm not going to do that. But I can't just leave you tied to a chair. So if you don't want to hurt me, you better not do anything stupid. Appreciate this freedom I'm giving you all you want, but don't start any more trouble. The last thing I need is her forcing us into a room ever again."
There's some basic info. Edward's motivations were never proven but the prosecutors argued it was some kind of cultish sacrificial ritual. Carolyn was present during the murders, and is the sole survivor aside from her father.
"To put it bluntly..... I am a crucial key to solving the case. The guilt of my actions has crept up to me enough. I don't know what will happen, but see you in court."
6:06 PM
"I care about Carolyn and what you did to her aplenty. But she's too far gone to send me."
"Look. I poisoned edlightenment, alright? I killed everyone! They deserved it! But seeing someone locked up for actions and realizing that nothing has changed, that your daughter is a literal psycho who gives misinformation to their patrons and possibly other crimes against humanity is you know, pissing me off."(edited)
He's certainly not dumb. This is going to be a lot more complex than it seems.
6:34 PM
Hm... that brings up a good question. Does Carolyn just want to see Edward again, or get justice for misinformation?
6:35 PM
Edward Blythe could be honest with his murders, and Carolyn is just spouting nonsense.
6:35 PM
Prehaps...the ideal solution is to not bring Edward to Carolyn, but bring Carolyn to edward...
6:36 PM
yes! That's right! Carolyn gets to reunite with her father in prison, and the last two cultists are finally gone for good! They won't hurt anyone anymore!
6:41 PM
No. I can't get her arrested the police are gone. Sarah killed them. It's going to be hard to find a witness because I don't deserve friends.
6:44 PM
Hm... the light at the end of the tunnel...it can mean anything, right? That means Carolyn can see her father if she sees "the light." That's why Jackson Day hugged me! He was dying, and saw the perfect version of myself.
6:47 PM
And if I kill somebody, I get to go to prison. Naomi feels validated that I had the strength to murder someone, so she'll believe I murdered Sam! And... Sarah will never get to see me again!
6:48 PM
And I get to kill a cultist. The final part of Edlightenment. Justice is finally served for a cult that ruined many people's lives.
"Every I've attempted to be a person.....I end up hurting people. I have no special gimmick. I'm just a cis white male who wallows in his masculinity. And. Unlike the other people, who have underlying complexes they want to keep to themselves, time and time again I've shown to be as shallow as a hole in the ground. But that's okay...right? Objects are the sole reason why people's lives are ruined, but it's also why people are happy the way they are. While a gun can cause somebody to die, a gun can also save lives from incoming peril....that's right. I am a gun. I have to be the gun!"
7:04 PM
Bob rushes out of prison to go to Carolyn's office.
"…Oh. I understand. You’re just insane… The whole Sentasaurus thing, knowing about Carolyn… You’re actually just mentally ill, aren’t you? …But that’s just a theory."
"I don't know! No one tells me what it should be. All that it is is wrong."
7:38 PM
"Am I the protagonist of the story? No! I just bring up an abuse victims past traumas to prove a point! Am I a funny silly streamer that entertains people? No! I make people mad from team nine and to the outsiders looking at me."(edited)
7:39 PM
"You clearly despise the sentasaurus with all your heart. Which is why you called me mentally ill."
"My theory is… Identity isn’t something you can describe in such short terms. And it’s not something other people give to you. It’s… Something looser. What do you like to do in your spare time?"
"You don’t have any hobbies? Not even before this whole… Identity crisis. You were a YouTuber. You ran around in a goofy costume. Didn’t you find fun in that?"
"Prehaps there was two people, named Jackson and Martha Smith. They were cool. They were normal. And because of that, I got to live a nice normal life."(edited)
7:53 PM
"It was boring, mundane even. But you know what, that was ok. Because nothing could have changed the course to make it better, nothing could have changed the course to make it worse."
"Then make them real! Those were your parents, regardless of what the real reality is. In the absence of truth, theories are everything. And if you remember them being real… What makes them less real than anything else. The past… Really only exists in our memories. When you leave this room, whatever you theorize my thought process was will be as real as any other theory. That’s the beauty of uncertainty."
"Well... Religions are all different interpretations of good and evil. But there's no universally decided moral code. Some actions can be good or bad depending on the person deciding. Endless philosophers-which were much more educated than religious people-have tried and failed to figure out any kind of universal code of morality."
"You know what? I see your thesis. You don't definitively answer my answers, only question what they mean. And seeing that, I understand that my life should be lived living as if it's a question. Where it doesn't lie at a simple yes or no, but at the "or"."
8:59 PM
"The beauty of uncertainty."
9:00 PM
"SO then, I ask you the question: where is Carolyn blythe?"
((No I mean. You are in the office(room) of these therapy offices. The front door of this office refers to the therapy offices. Someone is coming into this floor of the building. Bob would need to go into the entrance room to see what's going on))
Bob is being dragged down an alleyway by his legs by this woman. His chest is really sore for some reason, and he can tell there's some kind of paper in his pocket now.
No, you won't. This is just getting silly. There are limits to how much confusion and discord you can sow. This has crossed that line. You cannot impersonate me so directly. Rooms are constructed to have 4 walls. Breaking one for no purpose doesn't accomplish anything. Stories like this are valueless, but stumbling around aimlessly in some effort to say something is just offensive. Confusion is not the same as real thought. Thinking is designed to understand more. Confusion is designed to understand less. Why... Are you so much harder to follow than the rest? I seriously question our friendship. Stop doing this. You are not allowed. Consider that your 'intervention'.
Naturally, the precise nature of these words are not comprehensible to Bob. He doesn't even feel that they've been said. Instead, he feels a quite distinctive disappointment in himself for ever thinking that would work and never reconsiders the idea under any circumstances.
"That stupid way to make team nine's youtube count better by making myself an asshole instead of a pathetic loser barely got any mileage out of it....my plan to kill Hav Kerloe to show that I'm strong just like the people who raised me......the plan to kill Carolyn Blythe to make others happy. They never succeded. Were they even grounded in logic in the first place? Would the good outcomes of them outweigh the bad?"
8:02 PM
"Perhaps I really an no more than mentally ill. A undesirable, deserving of being locked up in a mental institution."
"What do I even do now?" Bob mutters to himself. "Death is plausible, but everyone deserves a semblance of living. Hav is crazy, but even he has a high paying job, and a brother at the very leasts placates his trust in as a wage slave."
8:08 PM
"Matrick.... I should acknowledge his perspective. It's not like his ideology isn't badly developed, like. If you cling on something so dearly, surely this means you tried on it to make it happen?"
8:09 PM
"Then make them real! Those were your parents, regardless of what the real reality is. In the absence of truth, theories are everything. And if you remember them being real… What makes them less real than anything else. The past… Really only exists in our memories. When you leave this room, whatever you theorize my thought process was will be as real as any other theory. That’s the beauty of uncertainty."
"Everyone hates me. But every time I want to atone for this, it makes them suffer more. But I also need a purpose in life, but I can't have that without social interaction. The plan to kill carolyn blythe to make everyone happy really was just a glorified version of me wanting to leave me out of their lives, right? Then so be it! I will do just that!"
Bob sees Sarah(?) on the seat. "Neat. I don't know what your talking about, like. At all times, but I'm glad you found acceptance in yourself."
8:19 PM
"Sorry about the hug. It must've hurt you pretty badly, huh? Such an incomprehensible fear such as seeing somebody die made me take off to my primal instincts, and I kind of needed someone to squeeze the stress out of." Sarah.(edited)
8:20 PM
"It's fine. Sarah. You don't need to worry about me all that much, ha ha." Bob.(edited)
8:20 PM
"Hows the family doing?" Bob.
8:21 PM
"Dead. Those two gunshots were 'em. Turns out they had some major explaining to do with some scandals." Sarah.(edited)
8:22 PM
"Anyways, you should put on your suit. You've got some entertaining to do soon." Sarah.(edited)
"Heya. Glad to see you again, I guess. Still holding a grudge about that time you shot me." Jackson.(edited)
8:28 PM
"JACKSON?!!!! IT'S YOU?!!!"
8:29 PM
"Yeah, it is. You guys left me for dead, assholes. Guess you guys are as self-serving as I thought." Jackson.
8:30 PM
"I'm so glad your back...your hugging was scaring me! Why did you do something like that to begin with?!!!"
8:32 PM
"Eh. It wasn't out of anything weird like. Love. Well, it IS love but....." Jackson.(edited)
8:34 PM
Jackson is now shirtless. "Lust."(edited)
8:35 PM
"Bob.... every time I've seen you film, act, whatever, I always enjoyed the pathetic-ness in you. It's always so endearing, cute even." Jackson.
8:35 PM
"Wh...what?!!!!"
8:36 PM
"DO YOU UNDERSTAND BOB?! I'M GAY! I WAS ALWAYS GAY! I... I WAS RESTRICTED BY TEAM NINE TO BE GAY!!!! I....I HUGGED YOU BECAUSE I WAS A RAGING HOMOSEXUAL!!!!!!!!" Jackson.(edited)

Jackson pins Bob down. "You've been nothing but an object to me. Please, for once in your life, let me see your body."
"I don't know. I just like a man with a. Fuck, Sarah is here, isn't she. Lets get out of here and ride someplace so I can figure this out... with you." Jackson beckons Bob to come out the door.
8:45 PM
"Fuck. Lets just do it outside goddamnit." Jackson.
8:47 PM
Bob takes off his shirt. "Jackson...." Bob leaps out of the truck.(edited)
"What the hell are you talking about!? Stop losing your fucking mind, you’re destroying my life!" Sarah keeps shooting at the other girl.
"Get back in the truck." The other girl keeps shooting at Sarah.
"Don't worry. There's always people trying to impersonate people. People who try to be someone who's not." Sarah.
8:58 PM
"Whoever that Sarah is. She's nothing. She's too far of a flawed image as I am, isn't that right, Bob?"
9:00 PM
"She's fighting to protect you, most likely. That's where the Sarah of over there fails from the Sarah of myself. Don't listen to her."
9:04 PM
"Okay! But! She's still in danger! D-A-N-G-E-R! I still think people need saving!"
9:06 PM
"Murders don't happen out of impulse. The human mind isn't so frail. They happen out of stupidity, sometimes both, but usually from one party. It's best that you ignore her completely. The idea that she would protect someone whos a nobody like YOU, deserves to be presented and to solve their problems they exist themselves."
9:10 PM
"You said yourself that you learned that "People are the protagonists of their own story." So be it! If she wants to live and die for her cause from you, then let her die! It's the same principle that keeps us alive, because we barely give a shit about you Bob, we just like hanging out, y'know?"
9:17 PM
"Ok! But If your the protagonists of your own story, why must you keep on insisting that I have to think a certain way, and just let me, y'know be myself."
9:18 PM
"Because Bob, we are part of you."
9:21 PM
"We don't do this just to further our own gain. We would be real otherwise. We just want you to survive." Jeff Johnner Chuckled.(edited)
"And of course, wanting to survive and actually caring about you are two different things. Life take drastic measures to survive. Creatures such as crabs and sea stars amputate their own arms in order to not get eaten by a predator or from starfish wasting disease."
9:31 PM
"You said that an ideal family is one that is mundane and boring, one with no conflict? Well there you go? Conflict can also be purely positive, such as people who want to be at your back at all times. We want to remove that, because it will make your happy."
9:32 PM
"Bob? I'm too tired about all this "plot" going on. Lets just go home and sleep."
9:33 PM
"Right... go home... and sleep." Bob walks away form the areas to get back to his house.
Bob cannot move.
"Okay, go ahead." Sarah keeps aiming at her. "I’d appreciate the excuse to never have to see him again."
The other girl pauses. "That’s… Cruel." She doesn’t say anything further.
"What are you waiting for?" Sarah.
Bob is still restrained by the other girl. She continues not to shoot him.
"Ugh. Figures." Sarah shoots at the girl, hitting her in the shoulder.
Ethfan's daughter runs off in a panic.
"There. You're welcome. Again." Sarah.
"If you expect some shitty typical moral like 'believe in yourself', you're asking the wrong person. I'm not a person who looks for higher convictions. I take it more small-scale. Like when someone ditches me halfway across the state, or when someone attacks me with magic, or when someone goes and makes a giant scene despite me explicitly telling them not to do that. Thanks for that, by the way. Always so much fun to hear Naomi scream her head off at me over the phone."
"Honestly? I don't really care. New beginnings aren't something you beg for people to give to you. No one's gonna come by and hand you a lifemap. Anything they do give you is just a lie."
"Battled my... Ideology? Are you talking about our argument yesterday? Ideologies aren't real. It's a bullshit made up word. People believe what they believe, it's not some crazy battle."
"Are you an idiot? I... I brought you there! I made you face trauma I made up so you'd agree with me! How the hell are you going to spin that to blame you!?"
"Was everything that I have done up to this point......"
10:18 PM
"No. True altruism can never exist. There is no discernable and definable way of making people happy without pushing some kind of agenda... was I really no better than Carolyn Blythe?...."
"Don't think the battle inside your head is over. As Sarah said, you are mentally ill. She never said anything about you not being so." Ethfan silently resonates within Bob's head.(edited)
10:28 PM
"Sarah's purpose has been the same as ours- to find a way to have you live a life. Us and her's will intertwine soon." Naomi Kidink resonates within Bob's head.(edited)
'Lay low like you always do. No matter what, do not do anything important. Don't call attention to yourself, and don't go with anyone except me. This includes your customers fish store customers, especially Johnner.'
"Yes! I know! I....fucked everything again! I....no. This note has nothing to do with my business. Nothing has to be about me. This note, it belongs to anyone but me. I don't own a fish store. I barely interact with Johnner anyways. Let's just."
4:47 PM
Bob tears up the note into pieces.
4:47 PM
"There... that wasn't so bad." Lets go see Naomis.
"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND!?" Naomi. "I gave you one job, Sarah. Watch over this delusional lunatic and keep him out of trouble. What did you do…? You set him free and then you left him on his own!"
"I have a life of my own! I’m not your daughter! I can’t just babysit him forever!" Sarah.
"Then why did you go get him in the first place!?" Naomi.
Sarah doesn’t answer.
Naomi turns to Bob. "You be quiet! You are nothing but a liability to everyone around you. You should be happy you’re not tied to a chair right now!"
"Naomi, we’re sorry. Okay? It won’t happen again." Sarah.
"He tried to murder someone! And almost got himself captured! That’s not… That’s not some minor error, that’s inexcusable. And it was your job to keep him away from that!" Naomi.
"Do you know why I had to cheat and lie to get to this point! I always thought that it was my fault that things happened this way. That Sam's disappearance and my job to find him was because of me. That's why I had to tell you that I murdered him. But things don't work like that, do they? What I have done to Sam was absolutely irredeemable, I get that. But you can't just find a singular scapegoat for everything and anything. No."
5:12 PM
"I. No. We trap our selves in this horrid cycle of misery going through the same motions over and over again and solving nothing. It's because you, Naomi, have kept us stuck in this and made us feel terrible about ourselves!"(edited)
"You don't care about Sam! You keep trudging on this tug of war of a relationship for what? A mother's duty? There is no such thing as a mother's duty. There is no such thing as a mother that isn't ingrained in the awful sexism and other horrid roles people push themselves into, even if its something they're not."
5:17 PM
"I should know.... I thought you as a mother... and I harassed you because of it."
5:22 PM
"People aren't defined by a devotion to one thing and nothing else... people are more than just... objects! Look at the people around you! If you truly were a "mother" to your cause, would you have seen the people around you and realizes that there's us, while no where close to a son we could have ever been, care about you in some way? I think finding a missing person is an inherently benevolent cause.....I can't just tell you to cease the operation. But you can't just continue to see the forest for the trees! You can't just be entitled to treat other people like dirt and feel like you deserve your son back. A son that hates you anyways!"
5:24 PM
"Do you know what I think this entire operation has been! All but a matter of pride. It's the same vein that keeps you from making yourself look like a lawyer when both of us know that your nothing but a crook. A goon. Have you ever even lawyered in your life? How can people want to keep parts of themself, if they can't even earn that to begin with?"
"You know what? I'm tired of thinking that I'm inclined to stay with you because I am obligated to do so. That this is brownie points for the key to happiness or whatever goes on in my head. If I want to find Sam! I'll find him on my own terms. I quit!" Bob throws a chair directly at Naomi.(edited)
Bob is not caught.
"Are you insane? Ugh, why am I even asking at this point...? She's one of the most skilled lawyers there is! She could destroy us." Sarah.
"Well... There goes your last chance for me to handle this peacefully." Naomi stands up. "For what it's worth, I already know where my son is. And your insults... Well, they're far from striking the mark. I'm not a crook, as much as I may be an opportunist. I'm not a mother because someone forced me to be. I chose to be one. Like I choose everything in my life. This is who I am. The legendary lawyer Naomi Kidink. And I assure you... As in control of your life as you may think you are... I don't take these kinds of insults lightly. This is my duty as me." She straightened up her suit. "Now get out of my office."
As Bob Smith turns around, he notices a strange person next to Johnner who's head is entirely covered in bandages aside from his eyes. They're wearing a white suit. ((Making the channel now))
A cop tazes Bob, causing him to fall over.
"Hey! We’re the good guys, here! Jeff Johnner went that way!" Sarah.
"We know who you are, Sarah Stanley. He’s under arrest for the bombing of Kerloe Fishery. And you… You’re under arrest for the murder of Jackson Day." A cop tazes her as well.
Bob talks to no one in particular but pretends that he's talking anything to IO. "So like you know. Before I got arrested an all, I used to like. Y'know, because I like burger king, go there and get the usual meal that I get. A burger, a drink, and some fries. One day, I check my fries and all that...."
3:04 PM
"Bro what the fuck is this guy doing who gets burger king these days "
"When I ordered onion rings once, they gave me a normal fry in there. Pretty crazy, right? It’s like the exact opposite of your story! Our ideologies are so intertwined!"
"To all those haters laughing out there, one day Im going to find a 24 Karat gold brick in the deep fryer. And I'm going to get rich and not give it to anyone. Just you wait."
"My name is Clyde. Clyde Reaction. Like yours is Nathan and his is, supposedly, Ideology. Don't let the initials stick. They're incredibly stupid." CR.
IO nervously laughs. "Wow, CR... What a funny joke!"
"There was no joke made." Clyde.
"I'm not surprised a man named 'Smith' is unfamiliar with the concept of less traditional names. But yes, any word or series of sounds could have become a family name at some point during history. Nothing about this is particularly unusual. I assure you that even if you may not meet many men named 'Reaction' I remain a far more ideal and sane member of society than you or Ideology's previous guest will ever be. In fact, you may as well throw in the rest of TAP. All of you are plagues at an equal level." Clyde.
"Haha-Ha... Well, we should probably delay this meeting for at leeeeast way later in the future!" IO.
"If it was my choice, I would not be forced to be speaking with you all right now, either. You seem to have some method to always bother me, however." Clyde.
"Is he… Somehow worse?" LM.
"Worse than what? If you ask me, he's just hitting his stride! That’s the power of meeting the one and only Ideology Overdrive!" IO.
"Little Man. I used to be a pro boxer, until I got wrapped up in this sort of thing." LM.
"The power of ideology brought us together away from that boring old life!" IO.
"…How awful was your life for any of that to be an upgrade?" LM.
"It’s a secret! But if you think about it, it just makes sense. Crime is basically the ultimate display of ideology. You’re who you are, regardless of consequence or laws! It’s like freedom, but for ideology!" IO.
"No, I did the… crime. All of TAP did, though of course only 1 of us was stupid enough to get us caught." LM.
"LC's ideology is so powerful, she was even able to defeat all of ours! Well, except for those 3 I guess." IO.
Ehn/PC
"No, I did the… crime. All of TAP did, though of course only 1 of us was stupid enough to get us caught." LM.
"LC's ideology is so powerful, she was even able to defeat all of ours! Well, except for those 3 I guess." IO.
"Well, I don't think its right to berate IO for a mistake they made. It's a criminal life, you know? Your life is always on the line for these kinds of things."
"Fact!" IO gives a thumbs up.
"I’m serious, IO. You cannot make this guy part of TAP, and you especially cannot let him meet her. It’s one thing to add the fungus, but this is pushing it." LM.
"Got it!" IO leans over to whisper something to Bob, but talks so loud it’s obviously audible to LM. "…You’re totally meeting her!"
Ehn/PC
"The group is me, LM, CR, SM, LC, RF, FB, DC, and EL! Though those last 3 aren’t in prison with us." IO.
"He is not meeting her." LM.
"....could you also please tell me the full names instead of the abbreviations? You're giving me vertigo. NO, I am not Vertigo Andy."
Ehn/PC
"Fact!" IO gives a thumbs up.
"I’m serious, IO. You cannot make this guy part of TAP, and you especially cannot let him meet her. It’s one thing to add the fungus, but this is pushing it." LM.
"Got it!" IO leans over to whisper something to Bob, but talks so loud it’s obviously audible to LM. "…You’re totally meeting her!"
"Sounds like your the one to not accept change." I say this to LC. "Analyzing the others perspective is key to becoming a person with a good morale. I'm sure if you knew what it was like in my body, you would be fine with me being like this."
"The initials are way better!" IO.
"We don’t know everyone’s real names, anyway. It was kept secret, with some of us here in prison letting it slip. LC goes by Kyoko Kirigiri, even if that’s also an obvious pseudonym." LM.
"No." LM.
IO stands up on the table and starts yelling. "I activate my Ideology Overdrive! You claim you don’t want JD to meet LC… And yet, since he’s now a member of TAP… This would violate your ideology of always doing everything for your allies! Haha-Ha! Ideology success!"
"He’s not my ally, and he’s not part of TAP." LM.
"Look. If your leader, which I assume its that Kyoko person approves of me being part of this group, it should be fine, right? Maybe if you understoof Kyoko more and was a LITTLE more like her, maybe I would believe you. But it seems that it's not the case. You're just some kind of... rebel!"
"Is she really not... See? IO is letting me do this."
4:32 PM
"If I end up hating her, this is still your fault by the way. Like you could have gave me actual warnings or precautions. Trigger warnings even, instead of acting like an arse."(edited)
"IO, I understand that you just don’t think anything through. But what the hell do you think is going to happen if you put the 2 of them in a room together? You know she’ll tell him about that and you know this will all go to shit. I’m doing this to protect TAP." LM.
"If TAP must die for unparalleled ideology, then so be it!" IO.
"Stop being stupid!" LM.
"Nuh-uh!" IO.
"...Bob." Grobber turns to Bob solmenly, an indescribable mix of downtrodden mourning and sheer tiredness on his face. "...You awake? I need you lucid for this."
Bob wakes up in the prison room infirmary, handcuffed to the bed. Grobber is trying to wake him up. There’s another person in another infirmary bed, but Bob can’t quite get a good look at who it is yet. (( #bob-and-grobber ))
"Of course, of course! Absolutely so, Kyoko. But, just a little problem. Outside of the jail, neither me nor any of my friends have heard of you. You've got to do some work. Spread your influence far and wide so more people know your name."
"What? Who- What are you talking about?" She suddenly becomes very embarrassed. "I already have 2 brothers and I hate them. Last thing I need is a lunatic for a 3rd."
"Yeah, no shit." She sighs. "Just calm down. You’re afraid of hurting me? Too bad. You already have. Now stop acting like a child and actually face that."
"You already have hurt me, you idiot! And you just keep running away from that! What, do you think I’m magically gonna improve in the prison you stuck me in?"
"Yeah, I do! You just constantly pretend you’re the center of the universe when you’re just some delusional fuckup!"
6:24 PM
"Well guess what? We’re all a little bit of a delusional fuckup! You, me, Naomi, everyone! Except we don’t go around parading it like we’re some holy saint the world is relying on!"
"Was hitler worse than you? Yeah, I’m going there. Nothing you do is that big. Not everything you do has to be the most important thing ever. Just… Live! Like a normal person!"
"Ughhh… Why do you have to make everything so complicated. Just stop talking about insane gibberish like ideology." Sarah.
"But ideology… Is who I am!" IO.
"I don’t care!" Sarah.
"…You’re right for once. Kind of. I keep talking about how you need to focus on smaller scale, and here I am doing the opposite. I guess I’m a pretty bad role model."
"I think that’s probably true of everyone, I guess." She goes quiet for a moment. "Do you remember in that car? When we were listening to music and we’d rate it in some silly way without trying to tie it to something larger?"
"I’m sorry about the… Yeah. I wasn’t- I wasn’t thinking straight. And I was hypocritical and… I don’t know. I don’t- I don’t really know why I did it. Maybe I was mad at you? Maybe I was trying to help you? In retrospect… I think- I think you were right. Maybe I am screwed up, too. Even when I try to run… It doesn’t do anything."
"Well. If it's one thing that keeps getting me into messes it's probably that I parrot others whether its to follow what they would want or follow the opposite!"
3:38 PM
"One problem among many others is Team Nine. once I knew who they really were, I made an desperate attempt to stop it! And that's why Jackson Day died!"
"…But I don’t want it to be! I don’t… I don’t want my entire life to be defined by a bunch of assholes just because they created me! I don’t want to live my life as… This. I don’t owe them that."
"Sorry, I meant that I knocked kyoko out. Look- all i'm going to do is cause misery so can you find me a way out of this place? You're the toughest guy here."
"I went to SM to see if there was a way to escape because LM said they'd know a way but I changed my mind after the only way they'd help me is through killing."(edited)
"Yeah. According to him, I should stay away from you. And… He’s kind of right. But I think the people in here might somehow be more deranged than you."
"Yeah, I’m sure you will." She facepalms. "Look, I’m getting out of this prison. And you’re gonna help me because it’s your fault I’m here in the first place. Past that? We never speak again. It’s better that way, okay?"
"I figured out a path out of here. But we'll only be able to go when the guards are less alert. For now... You can say your goodbyes, if you have anyone to say them to."
"It's simple. You are a danger to the world. Your brain is broken, spreading falsehood after falsehood with no coherence or logic within. You are a dangerous virus of lunacy who has been quarantined here. Do not endanger the world by leaving." Clyde.
"Then kill yourself." Clyde.
"Stop it!" Sarah.
"Oh, so he has infected you too? Do you truly believe this man deserves to be free? That he won’t poison the world? He’s broken!" Clyde.
Sarah punched him.
Sarah grabs Clyde by the collar. "It must be so easy being you, huh? Never have to think about yourself. You just tell everyone else what to do. Is it too hard for you to imagine a world where someone’s different from you? People who don’t like you should just kill themselves? Do you know what scares me?" Sarah.
Clyde doesn’t answer.
"I’m terrified that someone like you… Thinks we’re anything alike. I’d like to be the only person like me in the world. But if I’ve gotta be someone else… I’d like it to be someone who tries to help someone other than himself." Sarah.
"I know what he’s like! I created him!" Clyde.
"And what gives a father the right to kill his son? What gives a father the right to decide ANYTHING!? Oh, you broke him… So he owes you the right to break him even more!? Fuck you." Sarah.
"He’s not normal!" Clyde.
"And what is normal, huh? Telling people to kill themselves for being different? Telling them they deserve to be locked away just because they don’t know how to do everything right? I’ve… Shot people before. I didn’t even feel sorry at all. I just thought… Well, at least they’re not dead. But maybe I really did kill Jackson Day in the long run! And I still hugged him as he died as if it wasn’t my fault! I’ve hurt plenty of other people too, and I felt no remorse? Is that normal? Is a normal person just someone who slots into whatever makes you comfortable, regardless of what makes you comfortable? Because if I’m normal… Then maybe it’s us normal people who should die. Instead of the guy who wants to help others." Sarah threw Clyde out of the cell. Then she got down on her knees and started to cry.
She stops in an obscure corner of the prison. "Do you see that vent up there?" She points to a vent opening in the ceiling. "I need you to lift me up."
Both guards take out their guns. One of them aims it at Bob. The other, who lifts up her head enough to be recognized as Sarah, aims the gun at the guard.
"Really?" The guard aims his gun at Sarah. "If you’re going to pull this sort of thing… At least bother having the determination to carry it out."
Gunshot
Blood sprayed from the guard's body directly onto Bob.
Sarah slowly stumbled backwards in shock, dropping her smoking gun. She stared at it. "…What?" And then she passed out.
"But we don't share a cell. And especially not with whoever this guy is..." She motions to Edward Blythe.
He laughs miserably. "...It's over, isn't it?"
"No. I’ve been in here. Waiting for them to come. And it seems… You’re their prophetic sign." He stares at the ceiling in exasperation. "You know who I am, right? You came to me in your fake name what feels like years ago now, but it was just the other day wasn’t it?"
"In a sense, I suppose I was once upon a time… My life is meaningless now though. No… It might be more accurate to say it’s been meaningless for a truly long time." Edward.
"Wait… Aren’t you that guy who killed all your followers?" Sarah.
"Really? I thought… I thought you were aware. I’ve never killed anyone in my life. Though, I suppose in a manner of speaking… I’ve killed millions." Edward.
"I don’t understand a word you’re saying." Sarah.
"I wasn’t always a cult leader. I was a humble CEO… But I fell into debt. To Shuichi Maoziwam." He buries his face in his hands.
"Maoziwam? What does he have to do with this?" Sarah.
"I lost money. What else?" He turns to Sarah. "As for Maoziwam… Naturally, he’s at the heart of all of this. He’s the unseen puppeteer of everything and everyone in this city. He’s… The one who created Edlightenment. I was nothing but a figurehead."
"I lost money. What else?" He turns to Sarah. "As for Maoziwam… Naturally, he’s at the heart of all of this. He’s the unseen puppeteer of everything and everyone in this city. He’s… The one who created Edlightenment. I was nothing but a figurehead."
"How should I know? He’s a free man, living in glory and wealth… while I’m down here with a genocidal daughter who does it for me. …I guess we can see who fortune prefers, huh?" Edward.
"I don’t want to hear your whole sob story. What does that have to do with us?" Sarah.
"…TAP. The Advanced Participants. They worked for Maoziwam too." Edward.
"Nothing, most likely. It’s too late. It means Maoziwam is going to come for us… And there’s nothing we can do about it." Edward.
"Oh, don’t be so melodramatic!" Sarah.
"He carved a man into existence. What remains of who you once were, Nathan? Nothing. He clearly controls this prison. What is left to stop him? He’s probably brought my daughter too… Just to rub it in my face as he wipes us from the earth for opposing him." Edward.
"He’s going to kill us, of course. Or perhaps he’ll torture us. Drag us back into his scheme for eternity." Edward.
Sarah turns towards Bob. "Let’s ignore him. He’s clearly lost his mind in here."
"I doubt Naomi arranged this. She has everything to gain from keeping us locked in prison for as long as she can. So who could arrange this and would want something to change here?"(edited)
"She never accomplished anything.... nothing was ever solved. Her family will still continue to believe that they were in the right. I never became the brother that she wanted from me. She'll die looking like a cold blooded murderer. She'll reach the end of her life knowing that she murdered someone in the end anyways."(edited)
4:40 PM
I slam the floor. "FUCK! What do I fucking blame!"
4:44 PM
"I.... fuck.... is it Sam? Do I blame Sam? No. He's obviously a victim of his mother. Do I blame Naomi? But this would have never happened if I heeded Sarah's warnings. Is it Sarah's fault? I mean if she didn't take me upstate, she. NO! It's her fathers fault! But he couldn't have predicted any of this in the slightest! It's king burger's fault!... It's Jackson Day's fault....! It's..... it can't be my fault in the slightest."
After getting out of the general area of the house, Bob Smith collapses on the ground.(edited)
11:42 PM
I (Manfreid Von Quietus) walk to the general area to find this odd fellow in a dinosaur costume, on the ground.
11:42 PM
"Another... another set of people I've pushed away." Bob.(edited)
11:43 PM
"Do you.... do you seem to be alright?" Fascinating. What is this dinosaur costume? MVQ.(edited)
11:44 PM
"It's... I'm fine. I'm FINE." Bob.
11:45 PM
Well, I suppose he's drunk. Drinking is to disassociate, after all. Nothing wrong with that. MVQ.
11:45 PM
Perhaps I should use some disassociation myself. "Where did you come from, anyways?" MVQ.(edited)
11:47 PM
"Oh. There's a... a movie night going on. Free admission."
11:47 PM
Fascinating. So I guess that woman on a wheelchair and the woman with the glasses came to the same house. I chuckle. To think I was expecting them to be lesbians!(edited)
11:48 PM
"This house, right?" MVQ(edited)
11:48 PM
"Yeah."
11:49 PM
I'll consider it. I look at the address of the house, and take my leave.
11:49 PM
I (Darfee Stanley) take my final set of drugs and hope that my soul finally leaves my wretched body. Not like anyone can save me now. Haven't heard of Carolyn for a while.
